Life in Quarantine
Another remote recording! This year's hosts, Salil, Shauna, Lauren, and Rhys all meet online to have their weekly conversation during the pandemic. Lauren takes the lead this time to discuss the scale of this world event, social media, e-learning, new habits, and positive ways of coping through this time. We will hear from the teens each week through the end of the school year to get insight on their social and mental health during this difficult and unprecedented situation.
Below are some mental health resources we've always promoted during our podcasts.
