Jeongeup Mental Health Welfare Center conducted a suicide prevention awareness campaign targeting all students and faculty members of Shintaeein High School on the 7th in celebration of the 53rd Health Day.
Under the slogan "Health Day, a day for all lives to live happily," this campaign, which took place in conjunction with the first period class, featured various programs that allowed students to naturally feel the importance of mental health.
At the event, suicide prevention counseling hotline (109) and pickets promoting the value of life were set up to visually convey the message. Additional activities such as mental health self-assessments, alcohol addiction experiences, distribution of promotional materials, and drinks were also carried out.
Son Hee-kyung, the director of the health center, expressed hopes for teenagers to recognize the importance of mental health and develop sensitivity to respond warmly to changes in their friends, hinting at expanding collaborative programs with schools.
