红场 will be transformed into an expo-like, 活泼的, social atmosphere to bring together interactive and educational booths combined with music, 奖, 对待, and giveaways for those who participate. The booths feature peer-to-peer messaging in a positive, community-focused setting that reflects a comprehensive approach to suicide prevention with topics areas including specific mental health issues, high-risk populations, stigma reduction, positive coping and life skills, 和更多的. By engaging the entire college community in this campuswide movement, students are reminded that they are not alone and that their mental health is valued just as much as their physical health or their academic standing.

The planning and running of this event would not be possible without collaboration from various other campus departments at Clark, a large number of passionate student volunteers, and representatives of the Jordan Porco Foundation.
