At Venardi Zurada, we recognize the critical importance of mental health in our youth. In an effort to promote awareness and provide valuable resources, we are proud to present “A Conversation About Mental Health with Fred Warner & CASSY (Counseling and Support Services for Youth).” This initiative brings together Fred Warner, a dedicated advocate for mental wellness, and CASSY, an organization renowned for its support services for young people.

During the surprise event at Canyon Middle School in Castro Valley, CA, Fred Warner and CASSY discussed various aspects of mental health, including the importance of early intervention, strategies for managing stress and anxiety, and the benefits of open communication. They emphasized the need for creating safe spaces where young people feel comfortable expressing their feelings and seeking support.
