Play it Forward
This project addresses the urgent need to support individuals experiencing heightened mental health challenges during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. This time of year often sees a rise in maladaptive coping behaviors, including substance use, social isolation, and self-harm. These risks are particularly pronounced for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities, who face compounded stressors due to socioeconomic disadvantages. Our initiative aims to deliver focused, community-based support to address and mitigate these challenges.
