HCA Virginia and EVERFI Host Experiential Learning Day for Teens

HCA Virginia sponsored a Mental Health Month event with EVERFI at Unity Reed High School in Manassas, Virginia.

This program stemmed from EVERFI's Understanding Mental Wellness signature event, sponsored by our larger network, HCA Healthcare, and was designed to support and provide resources and tools to students in a world where mental health challenges are increasingly prevalent among young individuals.
