In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month and in our continual efforts to support our scholars, last week our wonderful partners from Mental
Health Clinicians of Color - GR took time to read to some of our young scholars! Campus Elementary, Burton Elementary, and GR Ford Academic Center hosted therapists who read a variety of books about compassion and emotional management. Some of the books include "Listening With My Heart", "Keeping It Cool", and "The Boy With Big, Big, Feelings".
Not only did our young scholars have fun while learning about their social emotional needs, but they also got to take those books home! Our partners at the Grand Rapids Public Library donated books for every young scholar in those classrooms to take home!
We truly appreciate our partners and look forward to continuing to work with them to support our scholars. It takes a village!
