Prioritizing mental health is important to DeShon Elliot, especially for our youth. He hosted a dinner for middle and high school students, many of whom are student-athletes, to come together and talk openly about why taking care of your mental health is important and how to overcome the challenges that come with balancing sports, school, and life.

​

DeShon shared personal tips on how he manages his mental health as a professional athlete, helping these young people understand the importance of taking care of their minds, both in sports and life.

A huge thank you to Hibbett for their generous support, providing gift cards for the kids, and to our guest speaker Julius Boatwright for offering valuable insights.
