Last year we had great success with the Anxiety Scholarship program. It’s a $1000 video contest where high school seniors can submit a video about how anxiety holds them back in life.
We had about 24 applicants last year. With the CDC reporting that over 32% of kids today have anxiety, we’re offering the scholarship again hopefully to reach more of Utah’s students and promote mental health. Here are the website and poster.
