Welcome back, it's the STCP crew here with another podcast episode! Today, we talk about how COVID has affected our mental health by the drastic transitions of learning during the course of the school year. The main hosts for this podcast episode are Kristin, Abbie, and Meghana, who talk about their personal experiences and about the pros and cons of their current type of learning, along with their experiences on what changed before and after COVID. We are focusing on advocating for Mental Health in this podcast, so here are some links to educate yourself/get help on anxiety/depression/mental illnesses:
