Society for the Prevention of Teen Suicide - Join Hands to Save Young Lives
About 250 students, teachers, social workers and administrators from 28 high schools throughout Nassau County focused on issues such as mental health toolkit, building self-esteem and positive coping skills during Long Island’s first Youth Wellness Summit on Tuesday.
The daylong event in Merrick was organized by 20-year-old Adelphi University student Stacy Brief of Bellmore, a Society for the Prevention of Teen Suicide (https://sptsusa.org) volunteer who struggled with emotional issues and thoughts of suicide when she was a teen. She has volunteered with the organization for more than five years
