During the 2016-2017 school year, Newberg lost multiple high school students to suicide. During this time, several community members came together to see how they could support and improve the mental health of students and the town as a whole.
In this episode, President and co-founder Elise Yarnell Hollamon shares the story of Community Wellness Collective and how they continue to promote mental health access, remove stigmas surrounding mental health and addiction services, and support the overall well-being of the community.
