Pathstone Mental Health launches #ProjectPlaid campaign

Pathstone Mental Health wants you to turn Black Friday plaid.

This November 26th, Pathstone is asking all of us to mark Plaid Friday in support of the #ProjectPlaid Campaign.

The campaign began in 2019 after the tragic loss of Amelia Durocher to suicide.

With a resolve to not let this happen to other kids and families, Amelia’s mom Shanta created #ProjectPlaid.

The goal is to increase the conversation around mental health and raise funds to support mental health programs at Pathstone.

This year, the agency is setting a $30,000 fundraising goal.
