We will always be excited to talk to young people making an impact in the 'Just STARt the Conversation' podcast!

RUOK? (Are you okay?), was created to spread awareness about mental health struggles among students at Souderton Area High School. The abbreviation symbolizes how it only takes four letters in a text message to save a peer's life.

Students Adelina and Sammy, along with classmates and faculty, took this club and ran with it... all the way to the state capital! Their goal: to enhance school's communication of mental health resources with students.
