We were back at QVCC for their mental health and wellness fair! It was incredible to see friends, community partners and therapy dogs (Tucker and Hope) all come together for this amazing event ❤️

We stayed for the Spot the Signs presentation from Quiet Corner Peer Support. If you ever have the opportunity to see this incredibly moving presentation, you should.

Our heart is full ❤️
