Our goal is to ADOPT 25 CLASSROOMS in Los Angeles and bring our full Storytellers program & My Story Matters Journals to an additional 1,000 students this upcoming fall!

Join the movement to adopt classrooms and bring self confidence through storytelling to LA youth today!

PLUS ME is proud to announce the return of ADOPT A CLASSROOM.

THE CHALLENGE

Youth are in need of social and emotional support. The Surgeon General has issued an urgent call for a swift and coordinated response to the current youth mental health crisis. We are seeing surging rates of helplessness, depression, and thoughts of suicide among youth. ADOPT A CLASSROOM is an opportunity to offer youth a unique set of tools to recognize and celebrate their strengths, resilience, and inherent value through the creation of their own personal narrative.

THE CAUSE

PLUS ME will be ADOPTING the classrooms of 5 teachers in LA bringing our motivational 5-hour Storytellers workshop series and My Story Matters Journals to all their classes, nearly 900 students total.

Cameron Behounek South Gate High School

Melissa Guardado-Eastridge South Gate High School

Rene Romero South Hills High School

Stephanie Ruiz Barack Obama Global Preparation Academy

Briana Torres Panorama Senior High School

THE CALL

We are calling on you to join this movement to provide social and emotional support for youth by contributing to this ADOPT A CLASSROOM campaign today. Support PLUS ME in activating the art of personal storytelling to increase confidence in youth as they pursue college, career & life goals. We each play an important role in supporting youth.

THE CELEBRATION
