PEERS at Dia de los Muertos Festival 2023

Happy Halloween Eve! PEERS got to be to be part of this year's Dia de los Muertos Festival as both an altar artist and a vendor.

Our altar, "Crossing the Marigold Bridge", paid tribute to young adults between the ages of 16 - 24 that have lost their lives due to mental health issues and substance use. Our goal was to bring awareness to a growing issue that continues to impact our community and share resources PEERS offers.

At our outreach table, PEERS staff connected with the community and shared info on the organization and our ongoing programs. 

All in all, it was wonderful getting to connect with the community in various ways. Check out some photos from the event, provided by some of our wonderful staff!
