2023 PAF Mini Blogs

In January 2023, we welcomed ten extraordinary youth leaders passionate about mental health to join us for a transformative year. Together, they've participated in training and leadership opportunities, provided information and resources to their peers, and set the course for the change they wanted to see through our reACTion initiative by collaborating with our Core Implementation Partners and Advisory Council to shape policies that uplift the mental health and wellbeing of Black youth in New Orleans. Take a moment to read through their incredible reflections and experiences on their year in the Fellowship!
