One of the benefits Kelly Theurer has found with South Haven SCCDAT program is how it has forced her to come out of her shell socially.
“Personally, SCCDAT has helped me in many ways, but the most prominent way would be socially, Theurer said. “It has really pushed me to be a more sociable person and branch out as well as learning new things.”
The month is particularly important for Theurer and SCCDAT at South Haven.
“At South Haven HS, they specifically help during September which is Suicide Prevention Month,” Theurer said.
A family connection was instrumental in getting Theurer to join SCCDAT.
“I started with SCCDAT my freshman year, I joined SCCDAT because it seemed interesting,” Theurer said. “At the time my aunt was also a leader, which was an added bonus.”
For anybody who is interested in joining SCCDAT, Theurer said they should have no hesitation.
“I would definitely recommend joining SCCDAT, it promotes a good message, and can impact you for the rest of your life,” Theurer said.
