LOCATION

The Center for Teen Empowerment Inc. (TE) and the City of Somerville's Health and Human Services Department partner to launch the Youth Mental Wellness Ambassador Program. Youth Mental Wellness Ambassadors, ages 16-24 years old, will implement city wide discussion workshops and events addressing mental health and wellness among youth in Somerville. In partnership with youth serving agencies, schools, and housing, Ambassadors will shift attitudes about mental health, and change cultural beliefs and norms. By providing more youth lead safe spaces to discuss and learn, this program will support the city's commitment to decrease the stigmatization around mental health.

Come and meet the partner organizations and Youth Mental Wellness Ambassadors. In addition, the launch will premiere mental wellness PSA's developed by Somerville youth and an interactive speaking program. A light dinner will also be available.
