$5 registration fee

Our first Lunch, Learn, and Do for 2024 is coming soon and you won’t want to miss it!

We will kick off the year learning about behavioral health, a broad term that can refer to clinical mental health diagnoses, addiction issues, domestic violence, and sexual assault. Participants will better understand how United Way of Marathon County is addressing financial stability by working on behavioral health issues.

At this event you will hear from Dakota Kaiser, PhD. Dakota is the Integrated Services Director at Bridge Community Health Clinic, which provides health services to the underserved, underinsured, self-paid and insured population of Marathon County, including many behavioral health services. Dakota will address the types of behavioral health issues that are facing patients in Marathon County, and how Bridge Clinic’s role is critical to helping people achieve financial stability.

Following the presentation, you will participate in a brief project building calm kits for local schools. Calm kits include tools and information that help children with self-regulation strategies. Teachers and parents love these kits, and we plan to assemble around 200 of them to share with school counselors in Marathon County!

12:00 - 12:30: Lunch and Presentation by Dakota Kaiser, PhD

12:30 - 1:00: Calm Kit Building
