These activities were developed to introduce mental health topics to youth and to start conversations around mental health in the classroom or community. Each activity includes discussion questions for students to reflect on and share with classmates. The collection of mental health activities for students includes facilitator guides, activity plans, evaluations, and template letters to be sent home to parents. Activities can be implemented in the classroom or virtually.
