On Sunday, October 30 RISE UP KIDS’ expo at Forest Road Park brought together resources from our community to help deal with kids’ mental health and emotional issues. The event featured costumes, candy, a free tethered hot air balloon and resources parents may need to help their kids who may be bullied, depressed or otherwise feeling lost.
