SPRING BREAK MENTAL HEALTH WORKSHOP AT

CAMP TRUE COLORS

During her workshop, Veronica facilitated an activity called “Take a Break, Self-Regulate” to campers aged 10-13 years-old. Veronica began with a group discussion about the importance of routine self-care and the impact of self-care on mental health. Later, the group discussed what “taking a break” means to them while creating artful dice with their preferred self-care strategies listed on them. Throughout the activity Veronica took the opportunity to introduce various coping strategies including grounding exercises and ways to create digital and physical self-care kits. Veronica’s participation in Camp True Colors is a part of our valued partnership with ALSO Youth, where our therapists provide individual therapy sessions for LGBTQ+ youth as well as a weekly Parent Support group.
