    Coping 101: Happy Hardcore

    The term Hardcore means different things to different people. For Jimni Cricket, Hardcore means obnoxiously happy. For over a decade, Jimni Cricket has been an EDM DJ with a focus on the Happy Hardcore genre, releasing content online, streaming elaborate fan-fueled sets on Twitch, spinning at raves, and is more recently a weekly Radio host on c89.5 fm in Seattle.    Recent High School grad J Cool joined Jimni to discuss how she represents  herSELF with intention particularly in an industry dominated by men, the state of mental health in alternative or underground communities, how her eye-popping fashion choices can impact and enhance daily life, destigmatizes specific subcultures of the Rave scene, and shares advice for people who have a hard time being themselves.    Co-presented by 4Culture, Coping 101's Artist Mental Health Stories amplify voices from King County's cultural sector to empower individual artists, uplift the creative community and destigmatize mental health from a teen's perspective. No matter our age or background we all face challenges, and there are many healthy ways to find balance.

    Coping 101: Teenage Stability

    "Very often our youth have experienced some sort of very large schism, either in the family or in the family's stability. There are often expectations that kids cannot meet, or kids who are basically left behind by their families. The best thing a therapist can do is provide validation, and delight in a human's presence. Find something that they just love about that person. Being able to find that and really mirror that to somebody can be super-duper healing. I think we've been able to accomplish that." Tanya Keenan is a clinician and Behavioral Healthcare Specialist at Compass Health, working with teens that are experiencing housing instability across Snohomish County. Her work takes place at Cocoon House, one of Compass Health’s partners, working with young people, families, and their communities, to break the cycle of homelessness. Led by 18-yr-old host Gavin M., we explore the link between behavioral and housing stability in teens, and how communities can work together to address the crisis where it first begins to emerge.  Presented by c89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, made possible with local support from 4Culture, Hansmire Builders, and Compass Health - NW Washington's Behavioral Healthcare leader.

    Coping 101: Identity of a Citizen

    In the United States, until you become a citizen you're not guaranteed many of the equal and basic rights afforded to the majority of the population. And to become "undocumented" can be a nightmare, affecting and interfering with your physical health, mental health, family, occupation... virtually everything. Navigating these obstacles can seem impossible, unless you can find help. "In a nutshell, we are the 211 and the 911 for the West African Community... where if they need anything they come to us, and if we don't have it we make a concerted effort to go and find it." This kind of zeal, resilience and determination comes from a place of survival, and from a man who has found dignity in overcoming the countless challenges of an undocumented immigrant. Originally from Gambia, Pa Ousman Joof's experience as an undocumented immigrant inspired him to establish Washington West African Center and provide the identity-affirming services he needed but couldn't find. The nonprofit now provides programs and services for more than 5000 community members annually.  Presented by c89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, made possible with additional support from The Community Foundation of Snohomish County, The Washington State Department of Health, Hansmire Builders, and Compass Health - NW Washington's Behavioral Healthcare leader.

    Coping 101: Building Community Where You Live

    They say 'You can't be all things to all people', but what if there was a place that gave all the people all the things they needed? Student host Gavin recently connected with a few impressive teens who've found this place in their community, and they discuss how getting their needs met has helped them thrive.    The Community Resource Center of Stanwood Camano provides resources for basic necessities for families and individuals in the island community about an hour north of Seattle. The kind of impact they're making on young people, and the community at large, ends up being anything but basic. The CRC provides a range of dynamic programming to meet diverse needs, including free leadership programs, homework help, free clothing, first aid and other training, nutrition appointments, mental health employment services, support for expecting and early moms and more. Membership also offers arts and music experiences, including a couple bands they've formed which perform throughout the region.  Presented by c89.5 in partnership with Seattle Children's, Coping 101 is an ongoing series led by students in Nathan Hale High School's Podcast Club that destigmatizes mental health from a teen's perspective, made possible with local support from The Community Foundation of Snohomish County, Hansmire Builders and Compass Health - NW Washington's Behavioral Healthcare leader.

    Coping 101: The Residency w/ Jace ECAj

    "If we don't talk about it, and the systems stay in place, we won't get too many changes. We have to change not just the mind of the folx, but we have to change their hearts and their vision. What do you see? How do you feel about what you see? Mental Health is not one thing, it's connected to all of those. Your mental, your spiritual, your physical, your emotional... when those are all in line then you feel stronger for whatever scenario comes up." - Jace ECAj  Jace recently sat down with Gavin, advisor of the Podcast Club at Nathan Hale High School, to discuss stories from a life of music and activism, the role of hip hop in Community, and the work being done to raise the next wave of Seattle artists. Jace is the Director of Community and Artist Development and a teaching artist for hip hop community and artist workshop, The Residency. Jace is a veteran Seattle MC, and one half of the internationally touring duo Black Stax. He is a creative writing teacher who has led panels focusing on the accountability and responsibility of artists, and a leading voice in the Seattle hip-hop scene.  Co-presented by 4Culture, Coping 101's Artist Mental Health Stories amplify voices from King County's cultural sector to empower individual artists, uplift the creative community and destigmatize mental health from a teen's perspective.
