Join Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.®, Chi Alpha Omega Chapter for our second annual Mental Health Forum: Cultivating Wellness Together. It will be held on May 3, 2025 from 12PM to 3PM at the Gail Borden Library.

This powerful and informative event on mental health awareness is in partnership with NAMI of Northern Illinois, the NPHC-CSCC and the Gail Borden Library District.

The Mental Health Forum: Cultivating Wellness Together is a three-hour event designed to educate, empower, and connect individuals with mental health resources.

The forum will begin with a keynote address or panel discussion focused on trauma, highlighting its effects and healing strategies.

Attendees will then participate in QPR Suicide Prevention Training, equipping them with life-saving intervention skills.

The event will also feature three interactive sessions covering grief, stress/anxiety, and depression.

A Mental Health Crisis Van will also be on-site, offering immediate support, crisis intervention, and connections to local mental health services.
