The CAP Foundation is proud to highlight Mindful Minutes, a special episode of Beyond the Test: Connecting Communities through Pathology, led by high school volunteer Elsa. This conversation explores the experiences of two individuals, Bella and Gabi, who participated in missions trips to North Chicago and the Dominican Republic. They share insights on how their interactions with children through play and community service contributed to mental health awareness and personal growth. The discussion highlights the importance of supportive relationships, the impact of environment on mental well-being, and encourages community involvement.
