What mental health means to me - Isabel

Since high school, mental health advocacy has been one of my passions. In college, I enjoyed studying mental health through an interdisciplinary lens, taking a writing course and an economic course on the topic. I began volunteering for a suicide hotline when I was 15 years old. That experience showed me how many people desire a space for connection, inspiring me to create Voices Meet Minds (VMM) with Natalie. We began VMM as an org for youth, and it has been wonderful to see it grow along with us.
