My Project

This project is to give items for some mental health wellness activities in the library! The library serves over 600 hundred students in our K-12 School. The library is a revolving door of wonderful students throughout the school day. The library is a safe, happy, comfortable place for all students.

I want to provide materials, books, and activities for these awesome students to come and feel like their mental health wellness is valued and important to take time for their mental wellbeing!

This project has positive coloring pages for all ages, colored pencils, some candy/gum, books, jewelry making kids, and so much more to provide activities for students who are visiting the library, need a place to feel safe, and celebrated. These items will be available for students to use while visiting the library!

One of my goals of the library is to focus on students' mental health wellness!
