Describe the challenge you want to address:

It’s a Challange to understanding how everyone is coping with mental health. But it don’t have to be done in a state of sadness!

Describe your idea and approach to address the challenge:

Everyone suffers from some form of mental health. My ideas is for Moms Dads who mental health matters to them as much as their children. Single Mothers and Fathers and those who are still making it, every day are going through stress that breaks down happy homes, so MD mental matters would be a place, where moms and dads can come to release being “mad” or upset. It’s a safe space with art and music. Group therapeutic Center, meditative center. where people could come together and talk, Vent in a safe space. Eventually, this will take all health coverage where parents would not have to pay out of pocket. This will be a place where people can find their inner child, so they can do better to raise their children. Trying to find another way to heal family tension . M&D teachers will be needed… Art therapy majors, music majors or enthusiasts. Motivators and people who are open to social and spiritual healing.
