Students in the Partial Hospitalization and Therapeutic Emotional Support programs completed a "Worry Box" activity in conjunction with Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Day on March 10th. The activity helped students add another coping mechanism to their resiliency toolbox and encouraged expression of feelings, taking control of their emotions, and letting negative or harmful feelings go
All age groups completed the activity - younger students created a worry monster that "eats away worries" and older students incorporated journal entries that were placed inside their worry box. Thanks to Sara Timofeev, CIU 20 Community Support Associate / Community Liaison, for spearheading this project.
