My Project
I hope to use these items for my counseling students to visit when they are hungry, antsy, over/understimulated, or need a break to regulate their emotions. My high school students struggle with learning and managing their emotions at school so I provide them a safe space to visit and take breaks when needed. Many of them don’t eat all day and are starving and a snack or water can make all the difference. With some nourishment, a smile, and feeling like they are cared for, my students can get back into the classroom with a clear head, ready to learn.
