This mural was created by students in the District 6 Student Health Advisory Council to promote mental health in our community through spreading messages of hope, help, and strength. The mural represents eight areas of strength: Family Support, Positive Friends, Mentors, Health Activities, Generosity, Spirituality, Physical Health, and Mental Health that build resiliency and lift us up when we need.

Please share pictures of you being lifted by our wings of hope!
