Join us for a deep dive into Project Aware with Pia Houseal and Brandon Langer.

In this episode, we uncover how Project Aware is:

  1. Empowering Through Awareness: Increasing suicide prevention training for students (K-12) to raise awareness and reduce suicidal tendencies and feelings of depression.
  2. Fostering Mental Health Support: Ensuring school districts have screening tools and trained personnel, connecting students to vital mental health services.
  3. Bridging the Gap with Technology: Developing an electronic system to streamline referrals and connect practitioners with available mental health resources.
