Irving Park YMCA Hosts WRAP ON THE GO Workshop

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our participants, NAMI Chicago, and Lutheran Social Services for partnering with the Irving Park YMCA to bring the WRAP ON THE GO Workshop to our Community Hub in September! 

This free, 2-hour presentation empowered individuals to manage their mental health by providing essential tools for maintaining wellbeing. Participants identified personal stressors and mental health symptoms while developing actionable plans to address them in the future. They also engaged in meaningful discussions with other participants and discovered shared experiences. 

The workshop was both informative and fun! Attendees enjoyed fidget toys, snacks, giveaways, and raffle prizes that were generously provided by our partners. We were also honored to have a special guest, State Representative Lindsey LaPointe, who shared insights about her team’s important work in the mental health and behavioral health space. 

We are excited to announce that the Irving Park Y plans to continue offering this valuable workshop in our Community Hub, and we hope to see you here in the future! This is a fantastic opportunity to take charge of your mental health and connect with others in our community. 

We also always value your feedback! If you have any suggestions or would like this workshop to be offered at different times, please call us at (773) 777-7500. We welcome your ideas for other workshops that you’d like to see in our community as well!
