Community Alliance for Healthy Minds

I recently had the opportunity to volunteer at a mental health forum organized by Community Alliance for Healthy Minds. The forum consists of dozens of local outreach programs focused on helping people who are struggling with mental health issues, or have loved ones who are. There are booths set up to give attendees a chance to speak to some members of these various groups. Throughout the event, there are two keynote speakers and two chances to engage in a breakout session, which sets up multiple small groups focused on certain issues being faced. I had different tasks throughout the day including helping the exhibitors bring their supplies up to the main hall, directing attendees to the breakout sessions, cleaning up, and interacting with the different exhibitors to learn about the many services provided in San Diego County.
