Teen Self-Care Kits with NAMI

Learn to support your mental health in school and at home.

As teens, anxiety often becomes a BFF: it follows you to school, elbows its way into friendships, and was your first follower on social media. But we have choices in how we take care of our mental health.

The National Alliance on Mental Illness Cook County North Suburban (NAMI CCNS) will help us uncover ways to support our mental health using our five senses.

Each teen attending will receive a prepared mental health self-care kit, which will include instructions for a creative activity using sight, touch, and smell. You will also learn how to create your own self-care kit at home with supplies around the house, as well as how to use those objects to self-soothe during rough days.
