Facing storms in our lives is nothing new. Some of those storms may rage in our physical bodies but many rage in our mind and spirit. Sometimes it may just be a short blast of bad weather that gets us down momentarily (which is actually quite normal) but whatever you’re facing we don’t want you to be unsupported and just hoping that it will soon pass. We want you to be able to “dance in the rain”.

We want you to be comfortable talking about your storms. We want you to be able to get help whether you are in school or at home. Below are some ways you can get help or advice.
