Life isn’t just stressful for adults but for kids too. There may be lots of big feelings shared between parents and students now that it’s school season. However, one local organization, Community of Hearts, hopes to get the students to stress less with a couple of relaxing ideas.

Community of Hearts, a 501c3 non-profit, is dedicated to creating mental health advocates and promoting resources for behavioral health services for all.
