Youth MOJO: Ama-ZINE Mental Health Launch
In Summer 2023, Youth MOJO leaders launched the “Ama-Zine Mental Health” – sharing mental health awareness and resources for San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) students. The zine aims to create youth solidarity around mental health and promote collective healing through sharing personal stories, statistics and resources regarding youth mental health, and more.
“We envision an authentic space allowing young people to feel safe being vulnerable and open.”
— Youth MOJO Editor’s Statement by Iris Li and Amy Tang
SFUSD Mental Health
If you are an San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) student: Please consider taking the Ama-Zine Mental Health Zine Post-Survey! Mental health affects the lives of many SFUSD youth and we would like to know how aware you are of your mental health.
