About Youth Peer-to-Peer Mental Health Conference

The Youth Peer-to-Peer Mental Health Conference brings North Texas student peer leaders and their school advisors together for a day of learning and connection. Presented in partnership by The Grace Loncar Foundation, Grant Halliburton Foundation, and The Jordan Elizabeth Harris Foundation, the peer-to-peer conference gives students a chance to share ideas and strengthen peer support on their campuses.

Through age-appropriate speakers, breakout sessions, and interactive experiences, students learn to recognize warning signs, offer support, and connect classmates with trusted adults. They return to their schools with ideas for building more connected, supportive communities.
