JED Gala 2019
Our team, pictured here, enjoyed our most recent gala in June 2019. It was our largest gala to date and was a real team effort! JED's Annual Gala draws hundreds of leaders from the business, mental health and philanthropic communities for an inspiring evening that celebrates individuals and organizations using their voices, talents and resources to prevent the devastating impact that mental illness, substance abuse, and suicide have on our families, schools and communities.
Wellness Wednesdays
Once a month, we close our laptops early and take a break to practice self-care and spend time together as a team with activities like yoga, board games and painting.
Connecting and Presenting Across the Country
Our Dr. Nance Roy, pictured here, and a number of our team members attend and present at conferences across the country covering mental health, education, equity and more.
