"I feel like this kind of work makes me a lot more passionate about health overall. And it helps me be an advocate for things that I care about... STAND gave me those skills to be an advocate." As a first generation American from a family of Zanzibar immigrants, Aidah Hawkins knows a lot about Community. Currently in college pursuing a degree in nursing, she's already quite accomplished at a young age. Aidah helped start the need-based collective Sister Circles, which brings together Zanzibar Youth to help one another navigate life's challenges through a shared experience. She's also a graduate of STAND, where she led advocacy efforts in prevention work around marijuana and tobacco use. In this peer-to-peer conversation we explore ways to create healthier communities, practical coping strategies to improve youth mental health, and the impact of marijuana and tobacco on communities of color.  Presented by C89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's with support from the Washington State Department of Health's You Can campaign, Coping 101 is led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club with a mission to destigmatize mental health from a teen's perspective.

Have you ever stopped to consider all the ways you're connected with your neighbors and your community? Many of us are affected in ways we aren't even aware of because of the dynamic and complex nature of how our lives are interconnected with one another. Whether we realize it or not, when our neighbors receive care, when a family member starts therapy, when someone living on our streets has a safe place to go – our lives are improved, even if we aren't a direct recipient of care. In this episode we're joined by Tom Kozaczynski, Chief Advancement Officer for Compass Health to focus on what it looks like to develop and literally build behavioral health care structures in communities of need. From treating behavioral health issues, to addressing homelessness, chronic mental illness and substance use disorders, we discuss the ripples that happen in communities when health needs are met in accessible ways - and what we can do to continue to build a healthier future.    Presented by C89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, made possible with local support from 4Culture, Hansmire Builders, and Compass Health - NW Washington's Behavioral Healthcare leader. No matter our age or background we all face challenges, and there are healthy ways to cope.

As a husband to a deaf spouse and father to a deaf child, and as Highline School District's only ASL instructor, Loki shares some of the unique struggles facing the DHH community and practical ways those who are hearing can be more tolerant and inclusive to this often marginalized group. Loki also discusses his lifelong practice of traditional Samoan dance to communicate and connect with the world around him - including audiences Deaf and hearing alike.  Presented by C89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, made possible with local support from Hansmire Builders and Compass Health - NW Washington's Behavioral Healthcare leader.

No matter our age or background, some of us are just naturally more tense, reactive or prone to unhealthy coping tactics when feeling overwhelmed and it's all about managing the curve balls that come our way. It's important to take care of ourselves as well as help those in our lives who are impacted by mental health challenges, and here our student hosts learn ways to effectively navigate these conversations with friends or loved ones in need.  In addition to a basic education around Depression and related mental health issues, Seattle Children's Dr. Elizabeth McCauley explores practical coping strategies like choosing healthier foods, regulating sleep cycles, routine physical activity and positive socializing. No one is immune to Depression but we can all learn to cope in healthier ways.   Presented by C89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Radio class that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, made possible with support from Crisis Connections, Carter Subaru, Hansmire Builders and Audian.   Find more Coping 101 episodes, education and a wide array of mental resources online at c895.org/coping101
