NAMI GALA 2024

EVENTS

We very much enjoyed attending the National Alliance for Mental Illness (NAMI) Gala. It was such an amazing event for a beautiful cause. Shout-out to Alexa, CEO of NAMI. It was such an honor to meet you in person!

Girls Movie Night

We hosted a girls movie night and had a fabulous time introducing CHaSE Light to our community. Everyone had a blast with the scavenger hunt as they navigated the CHaSE Light website and learned so much new information about mental health!

Nature Walk

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the Reality Teen’s nature walk. This was a great oppertunity to disconnect from devices and reconnect with nature. Everyone was able to connect with students of their school and even from surrounding schools! We helped pick up trash and enjoyed our nature walk during the sunset in Glen Ellyn. This was the perfect chance to recharge and take a break from the busy and stressful season of college applications and immense amount of homework. Thank you for having us, and thank you to everyone who came with CHaSE Light to the event!
