Focus on Youth Mental Health:  A Free Community Event
Thursday, May 3, 6-7:30 pm
HSHS Sacred Heart Hospital Community Auditorium, Eau Claire

Mental health remains a top health priority in both Chippewa and Eau Claire counties.  This free community event will address the growing concerns for our youth in the Chippewa Valley, identify factors that can help protect youth from poor mental health, and provide resources to support youth in overcoming adversity.  The evening will begin with an engaging presentation by Angie Weideman (Chippewa Public Health Department) and Brook Berg (UW-Extension).  This will be followed by a panel discussion with local experts from the fields of healthcare, human services, and education.

The event is free, but registration is required.
