With support from 4Culture and Seattle Children's, C89.5 fm presents Coping 101: Personal Paths - part of a student-hosted series capturing Artist Mental Health Stories. Listen as arts advocates Crystal Lee Dandrige and Leigh Legler share their experience of overcoming trauma and learning to cope with mental health diagnoses through their participation in Path With Art. Since 2008, Seattle-based Path with Art has been at the forefront of a growing international movement that utilizes the power of art as a means to bring dignity, awareness, and healing to the complexities of the issues surrounding homelessness, addiction, and recovery from trauma.
Coping 101's Artist Mental Health Stories amplify voices from King County's cultural sector to empower individual artists, uplift the creative community and destigmatize mental health from a teen's perspective. No matter our age or background we all face challenges, and along with art there are many healthy ways to find balance. Get started with more episodes and resources hosted at
