Torch | Glenbrook North High School's Newspaper Featuring David Artz
Newpaper's Headline: Podcaster advocates for awareness | Student speaks up about mental health
Scrolling through mental health websites, junior David Artz noticed most organizations featured adults. To increase awareness for student mental health struggles, Artz decided to build an online platform for him and other teens to share their stories. “I started StoryAidHelp in 2022, and I was at my grandma’s house,” said Artz. “I was sitting on the porch, and I was like, ‘Man, I have a hefty story,’ and so I want a way to tell it, but in an impactful way.”
