Terms like "addiction," and "anxiety" often carry heavy stigma around with them. Yet opening sincere dialogues around mental health is exactly what longtime advocate Rebecca Benghiat does alongside Filament Games Podcast host Jennifer Javornik in this new episode.
With senior leadership experience driving growth for organizations like New York’s pioneering Quad Preparatory School and national nonprofit Facing Addiction, Rebecca knows firsthand both the challenges and the potential when it comes to nurturing young people’s wellbeing.
Rebecca's extensive experience working with vulnerable youth fueled her passion for supporting the mental health and wellbeing of children. Rebecca advanced that mission as the former President and COO of The Jed Foundation, “a nonprofit that protects emotional health and prevents suicide for our nation’s teens and young adults, giving them the skills and support they need to thrive today…and tomorrow.”
