With support from Nationwide Children’s Behavioral Health Pavilion and the On Our Sleeves campaign, this free event will provide valuable mental health tools that school-aged children can take with them into the new year.

We’ll teach yoga skills, create visual representations of mantras, help kids discover and display what they love most about themselves, create back-to-school kindness kits for each child and the children at the Behavioral Health Pavilion, and plant flowers with calming properties. After a very difficult year, we're hoping this event will make a positive impact on kids and their mental health as they enter into a new school year.

Who this in person service event is for:

Ages 4-12. Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome, but may find the event to be less meaningful and fulfilling.

What you'll be doing:

Join us for our back-to-school mental health fair - a free event providing valuable mental health tools for children while exploring the link between self-kindness and kindness to others.

In partnership with Seeds of Caring , Nationwide Children’s Behavioral Health Pavilion and On Our Sleeves, this fun & engaging event will include activities like worry doll making, kindness kit donations, affirmation portraits, yoga, and more!
