Katherine is working with the Western Pennsylvania School for Blind Children to implement Mindful Exchanges. Her project is bringing mental wellness education to vision-impaired youth. The goal of the project is to design and deliver mental health sessions for youth with unique needs, especially those who may be able to access mainstream resources or learn in traditional ways. These lessons will focus on self-reflection, identifying and addressing barriers and needs to mental health care, and building community among peers. Through community discussion, Katherine has also created a podcast called Finding Vision to support her project and vision-impaired youth.
