TEEN LEADERSHIP BOARD

CAlling all teen change-makers…

No Shame On U’s Teen Leadership Board is comprised of teen change-makers who are interested in destigmatizing mental health disorders in their communities. Members reinforce No Shame On U’s mission by learning about mental health in our local and broader community, and working together to create teen awareness initiatives, culminating in an end of year Teen Board directed and designed program. Teen Board members meet in person monthly.

Participation in the No Shame On U Teen Leadership Board will provide you with an excellent opportunity to grow and learn, while making a difference in your community. Join the mental health movement, and create the change you wish to see! Apply for the Teen Leadership Board!
