In the spring of 2021, Lissa & Thom introduced us to a foursome of teens from Naperville Central High School on a mission. They saw their peers suffering through depression, and took action.
Through a support group called Beyond Charity – they went on a mission to stop the stigmas associated with mental illness. During this episode of the Crisis Cast, we re-visit the inspiration these teens provided. The youth mental health crisis is far from over, as schools and families still struggle to find and fund critical resources.
The four guests from this episode are now making their mark on college campuses. They are studying health system policy, economics, criminal justice, and entrepreneurship. Their leader, Aparna Ramakrishnan will spend this summer working as a Congressional intern in Washington D.C.
