This campaign seeks to provide education and guidance primarily for these families/parents who are seeking support for newer concerns. This will help
families identify their level of need so that they can utilize resources effectively. The primary goal of the campaign is to both educate and inform families in the Waunakee community on the relevance and importance of mental health in the school community, as well as provide them with the knowledge and
appropriate resources to manage their child’s mental health journey. By providing information and equipping families to navigate mental health
challenges, the campaign will help to normalize the reality of mental health’s impact on the Waunakee student body. Finally, the campaign will help clarify
the school’s role and ability to support students by distinguishing appropriate treatment pathways between school and external resources.
