Who this in-person service event for:

School-aged children 5-12. Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome!

What we'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 Beehive Alliance, Nationwide Children’s Behavioral Health Pavilion, and On Our Sleeves, this fun & engaging event will include activities like yoga, kindness kits to be donated, affirmation pictures, kindness rocks, a take-home plant, information and resources from partners, and more! Children will create a toolkit of mental health strategies that can be used all year, and caregivers will have the opportunity to get resources from our community partners.
