Friends, Fun, and Feeling Good!
Looking for an excuse to spend time with good friends? Have a birthday coming up? Want to help out but don’t know how? Host a Party with Purpose!
This program helps you host a fun get together with friends while bringing mental health services to those in need. At the same time, you are spreading awareness about mental health issues.
You can plan the party any way you like – big or small, elaborate or simple. NCC gives you support and resources along the way. Click the links below to download the guide:
