Meeting ID: 823 724 7400
Date: Tuesday, May 5th, 2026
Time: 7-7:50 PM
Additional Information:
Ending the Silence (ETS) is an evidence-based program developed by the National Alliance on
Mental Illness (NAMI) to be delivered in classroom settings. It helps students recognize and
address the signs and symptoms of common mental health challenges, such as depression,
anxiety, and suicidal ideation.
The Sunset Project partners with NAMI Grand Traverse, MyMichigan Health, and the Northeast
Michigan Community Mental Health Authority to bring this impactful program to schools across
Northeast Michigan. Each presentation features two trained speakers—one lead and one youth
facilitator—who share resources and information about mental health and then open up about
their personal experiences. These honest, relatable stories help normalize emotions and reduce
stigma, encouraging students to seek help when needed. The program is designed to fit within a
single class period, often delivered during health classes.
