Today we are highlighting our Leadership Raleigh 40, Project Team 4 who completed their project with The Alice Aycock Poe Center for Health Education. This team decided to develop a project around bullying and mental health because of the systemic issue it has become. No one or nowhere is safe anymore, even cyber bullying. There has to not only be awareness but empowering someone to see it and say something about it to stop it. We intend to spread awareness and provide Youth Mental Health First Aid training for both of these issues by the amazing Rebecca Wheeler through The Alice Aycock Poe Center. This training will teach individuals how to help those experiencing mental health challenges or crises and empower those to see something and say something to stop bullying at the front line.
Congratulations Project Team 4 for your outstanding work and completion of Leadership Raleigh!
Applications are now available for our next Leadership Raleigh class here. Please note that these are due back to Des Burton by 5 p.m. on Aug. 14.
