Club Spotlight: Mental Health Awareness Club


The Mental Health Awareness Club (MHAC) is a hidden gem of Pasadena High School’s campus. The founders of MHAC work diligently to create a safe and friendly space for all students at school. Each meeting focuses on different topics of mental health and wellness. Activities vary from presentations, informational videos, meditations, guest speakers, and fun crafts! There are also organized out-of-school activities planned for the members of MHAC to further the club’s positive impact.

The Mental Health Awareness Club uniquely allows members to voice not just their worries, but their moments of joy as well. The club is centered around its members, aiming to grant students a break from school’s more hectic qualities. MHAC’s constant focus on its members’ needs sets it apart from the other clubs at Pasadena High School. The Mental Health Awareness Club’s pace is personalized to fit its members with meetings connected to current events, activities that lessen major exams and school stressors, and regular communication between members and the club cabinet.

A new year for the Mental Health Awareness Club is on the horizon. This year, MHAC hopes to spread the club’s optimism to more students on campus. Increasing the number of students acknowledging MHAC for the marvelous mental health resource it is will benefit students both academically and emotionally. Be sure to be on the lookout for the Mental Health Awareness Club (meetings in G205)!
