Recruitment and Outreach
Barrio Logan College Institute Partnership
In 2019, Project TeamUP began partnering with the Barrio Logan College Institute (BLCI) to provide workshops to the parents of students enrolled at BLCI. These workshops cover a variety of mental health topics, and were both created and facilitated by Project TeamUP participants entirely in Spanish. In 2020, Project TeamUP began offering English versions of these workshops in addition to the Spanish versions. To learn more about the great work of BLCI, please visit their website.
