These items will be used during counseling lessons, small groups, and individual support sessions to help students learn coping strategies, build confidence, and develop healthy emotional regulation skills. I know they are going to be so excited to use these tools, and they will feel proud knowing that others care about their well-being.\r\n\r\nI truly love what I do, and I feel so lucky to support students in such meaningful ways. I would not be able to provide these experiences without the generosity of donors like you.
