You Be You is a school-based, student-led program focused on accepting oneself and others. Housed at JFSKC, but implemented by students everywhere!

Just ordered new swag/merch for the 2020-21 school year...can't way to share with our schools and kids, esp. the new t-shirt! Email [email protected] for info/questions/updates

It's #MentalHealthMonday and we are talking about anxiety. Do you ever wonder what's normal and what isn't when it comes to anxiety? Our therapist friend, Julia has some answers for you. Check it out! https://t.co/Xtz3lCkwXu

Wow!

I can’t begin to tell you how proud I am of this program and this project. Makes this teacher’s heart smile. https://t.co/d4XRZmjfnX

Brave-a-Shave TODAY!

[YouBeYou @YouBeYouKC]

Nope, we're not tearing up at all!

[Blue Springs Schools @BSSDnews]

After being diagnosed with Ocular Melanoma in 2017, Asst. Principal Eric Neff stressed preventative eye care for students at @tuebssd.

On Monday, the school surprised him at an assembly with every student wearing #EyeAmNotAlone sunglasses.

For students at #YouBeYouKC schools, we are coming up on finals time, and there will be a lot of messaging about "giving it everything you've got!" This message from @midwestanxiety is very important--if 1% is all you've got, that's okay. No pressure.

[Midwest Anxiety @midwestanxiety]

Good morning. 1% may be all you can give me today. That’s okay. It’s better than 0%. Something is better than nothing. 👊

[YouBeYou @YouBeYouKC]

Agree 100%. #everyonestruggles, at least sometimes!

[Midwest Anxiety @midwestanxiety]

Struggles don’t descriminate. Everyone Struggles. Even @CarsonDaly. Let shift from talking about “mental illness” to “mental health.” #everyonestruggles https://t.co/xkRAURGaT2

#YouBeYouKC is a JFS program, too. JET Express is an amazing service that helps older adults...but you don't have to be an older adult to volunteer!

[JFS Kansas City @JFSKC]

JET Express was featured yesterday on FOX4 News Kansas City. It's a service that’s so much more than just a ride, helping older adults get where they need to go. To volunteer contact Volunteer Engagement at 913-730-1410 or [email protected]. https://t.co/IUI2lPl9Ec

[#ZeroReasonsWhy @zeroreasonswhy_]

Q&A with the Council: How do we respond to teens who joke about suicide? “I know that people I’m close with say that on a daily basis. When I hear that I immediately ask ‘do you want to talk about it?’ I ask that every time, even if they’re joking about it.” #ZeroReasonsWhy
