Safe Now EMU was created just about a year ago today. As co-Founder, it has been my pride and joy since it’s creation. To be able to orchestrate events to help educate our campus on mental health and suicide prevention and, therefore, change people’s lives, has meant a lot to me.
Now as Safe Now Active Minds, we are stronger then ever and have acquired more abilities and resources to make this campaign a truly campus-wide effort. Our mission is to provide Eastern Michigan’s campus with a community for knowledge and support about mental health and suicide prevention, reduce affiliated stigmas, and promote healthy lifestyles for all members of the community. As an EMU student organization, we pledge to support continuous education on mental health, and work to break down the barriers in society and policy that limit our scope.
Thank you for your continued support and Stay Safe!
-Bryan Michalowski, President, Safe Now Active Minds
