Full Summary: No summary paragraph submitted.

On November 7, 2019, Send Silence Packing® is bringing their nationwide exhibit to our campus as a part of their mission to end the silence that surrounds mental illness and suicide. 

In collaboration with our Counseling Center, the all-day exhibit will take place on Tech Green and will showcase many backpacks – some donated by families who lost a student to suicide. Attached to the backpacks will be photographs and stories from those who have lost a loved one to suicide. The Georgia Tech community is invited to stop by and read the stories throughout the day.
