This is the presentation my team at @UX4Good gave to our client, Ray Crossman and The Adler School. Our challenge was to find ways to help Adler bring awareness about mental health to the community, in a way where it's not stigmatized as *disorders* but perceived as another part of *wellness*. Team Mental Health included: *Brynn Evans (me!) *Laurel McDowell *Mekayla Beaver *Riley Graham *David Everly *Bill Welense *Will Hacker *Nina Bieliauskas
