New item in the ADAI Clearinghouse!

This coloring book from Seattle's LGBTQ+ Center and the Washington State Department of Health provides a way for youth to communicate emotions, ideas, and experiences, and help them manage their stress and reaffirm their confidence and love for themselves and others.

We have a very limited quantity of this item, so orders are limited to 30 copies per person, per quarter. Please be respectful of this limit so we can maximize availability and share these with as many groups as possible!

We'll also have DOH's Choose You/You Can Wellness Journals, sticker packs, calming strips, and Start Talking Now conversation cards back in stock starting next week!

Find the new coloring book and all our other materials at http://ADAIClearinghouse.net!
