On Wednesday, May 28, Brillient welcomed Jazmin Taylor and Joy Sheppard from Active Minds for a virtual presentation on mental health awareness, suicide prevention, and the #SpeakYourMIND Ice Bucket Challenge. They introduced helpful tools like: Acknowledge, Support, Keep-in-Touch, a simple framework to guide mental health conversations.

Attendees engaged with Jazmin and Joy during a Q&A session, discussing support for younger children and exploring Active Minds’ chapter network across schools and universities. Learn more:

To wrap up, Brillient’s Chief Digital Officer Richard Jacik took the ice bucket challenge, doused by Stephen Osu, in support of mental health awareness. Despite a few playful splashes back at the crowd, Richard was a great sport!

Thank you to everyone who made this event possible, especially Meghan Misiag, Jessica Fonoroff, Kristina Maddox, Trina Nicholson, Keebie Davis, Amy Howard, Bret Denning, Jonathan Oglesby, Kate Stuhrke, and all who participated!

Brillient is proud to support the mission of Active Minds and the importance of mental wellness for all.
