I want to create a club centered around mental health involving youth voices. But I want to expand beyond just a generic informational club and the clubs already established at my school. What type of club can I start?
Hello! Life after high school to me means being a neuropsychologist. I'm very passionate about mental health and the brain. Currently, I am on a youth committee centered around youth voices advocating for mental health, and it has sparked an inspiration to start a club at my school involving mental health. What I see in this club is multiple things: neuroscience, psychology, mental health, policies, advocating, media, and youth voices. At my school, I expect there to already be mental health clubs, but I want to start a club that expands beyond that. I also want to contribute to things, create things, host events, rather than just be an informational club. This is something I'm very passionate about, but I want ideas about potential clubs I can start. I really want to involve different things in this club instead of just focusing on one main thing, for me, I want to involve both neuroscience, psychology, and mental health awareness.
What type of certifications to navigate a career in crisis prevention?
I have just an associates in marketing management and I would like to know what additional certifications in or centered around ( crisis prevention) ? I want to possibly work with planned parenthood and or similar programs. My passion is lowering numbers of single parent homes AND ADVOCATE the outcomes of children and young adults that were raised in dysfunctional upbringings. There is a direct impact of children and young adults that grow up with dysfunctional single mothers/fathers that couldn't provide them with certain tools AND give them a negative outlook on themselves and the real world affecting their way of functioning in society. It's important to lower the numbers of children/young adults that are force to live a dysfunctional life due to parents who are not ready to be healthy fulfilling parents. This is my passion and goal. I just don't know how to get there and make it into a career with just an associates marketing degree and no certifications ( as of yet) I'm also open to volunteering and interning.

I want to become a music teacher for smaller children like in kindergarten, is this a good idea?
I want younger children to be exposed to various types of music because music is a major thing in the world. I do not know how to play any instruments very well besides the saxophone, which will not help me. However, I do want to try and open up a daycare with my bestfriend, and within some part of the day I want to teach them music. Also, I do want want to put on mini concerts for the parents and I know I can not do that at a daycare so I don´t know what to do. #music #children #youth #daycare #music-teaching
