You Arent Alone Project Inc

Results: The You Aren't Alone Live Art Event is our annual fundraiser that brings together artists and community members to change the conversation around mental health and connect through the beauty, power and vulnerability of art. The event offers a unique glimpse into local artists' mental health journeys interpreted through visual & performance art-the pain, the loss & the triumph. The goal of this event is to facilitate and change conversations around mental health by bringing awareness to what living with mental health issues looks like, while also continuing to build a support network comprised of survivors, those struggling, supporters, and everyone in between. Hosted by mental health advocate and YAAP founder Chelsea Borruano, the goal of the Along the Gravel Road Podcast is to provide a safe platform for people to share their mental health journeys and give others a sense of hope and connection. We took a brief hiatus but are excited to be back with new episodes featuring a higher production quality with both audio and video and a lineup of diverse and incredibly impactful guests covering a range of new topics such as addiction and recovery, disordered eating, generational trauma, and so much more. The You Aren't Alone Project is proud to offer wellness-themed retreats designed for the community to engage in mental health & wellness activities that encourage self-care, support and solace in a safe, inclusive and collaborative environment.
