Agassiz Partners with Hope for The Day
Agassiz will initiate a new proactive suicide prevention program this year through a partnership with Hope for The Day. Hope for The Day is a Chicago-based non-profit organization that focuses on suicide prevention by providing outreach and mental health education through the use of music and art. Initially, program implementation will focus on training staff and teachers on mental health awareness and connecting students in need to community resources. The goal of this partnership is to build a community climate that supports social emotional awareness and talking about feelings so that we can best promote the safety of all of our students.
