St. Joan of Arc Catholic Adademy's Mental Health Action Team tackles student mental health. "Your Feelings Are Real, and So Is Hope" is a heartfelt video created by Arunashivani R. R., a student at SJOA and a dedicated member of the school's Mental Health Action Team.

Rooted in our Catholic values of compassion, dignity, and community, the video signifies the Mental Health Action Team's commitment to Catholic values in supporting student mental health, and reminds us that every person’s emotions are valid and that hope is always present. Arunashivani’s message encourages us to care for one another, seek help when needed, and remember that no one is ever truly alone.
