Volunteer Spotlight: Dimpel Patel

Nov. 5, 2019- Dimple Patel, of the AFSP Illinois Chapter, shares advice that she’d offer to young people when speaking about mental health, including knowing where to get resources. She also shares from her own journey of opening up to friends, and finding support and understanding in return.

These stories, filmed at our 2018 Chapter Leadership Conference in Charlotte, N.C., feature volunteers from our AFSP Chapters nationwide. To get involved, find your local chapter and check out the volunteer opportunities at the array of programs and events offered year-round!
