Episode Synopsis

Meeting people where they are, you learn more about what they really need. Stephanie Sarantos and Karina Gasperin have applied this philosophy for the past few years in building Well Being, a Youth and Family Resource Center based in Bothell, Washington. Stephanie comes to us from The Clearwater School, an alternative school with an exciting model. Karina is the CEO of Mujeres con Actitud Latina, providing resources and information for immigrants and latinas. Student host J Cool discusses what it means to take community creation and development into your own hands, and how lives outside of traditional structures can lead to healthy growth. Presented by c89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, made possible with local support from The Community Foundation of Snohomish County, Hansmire Builders and Compass Health - NW Washington's Behavioral Healthcare leader. No matter our age or background we all face challenges, and there are healthy ways to cope.
