NSUB To Host Free Online Mental Health Forum for Youth

For many Belizean students, school stress doesn’t stop when classes end. It follows them home and online. To help them cope, the National Students’ Union of Belize (NSUB) is hosting a free online Mental Health Forum on October 9th at 7 p.m.

The forum, themed “Building Student Wellness Together”, will focus on managing stress, staying balanced, and caring for mental health. Guest speaker Dr Kristcha DeGuerre, a clinical social worker and mental health expert, will share practical tips on mindfulness, stress management, and recovering from burnout.

NSUB founder Guillermo Berganza says the goal is to help youth “learn practical ways to manage stress, build resilience, and prioritise their mental well-being.” Adding to that, the event aims to encourage open conversations and break the stigma around mental health.

Students, youth leaders, and young professionals are encouraged to join and be part of the conversation on self-care and emotional wellness.
