Her campaign is raising funds to deliver medical supplies and essential items like PPE to Navajo citizens.

UA - setting the standard! Love you, Dr. Robbins! Thank you for everything you are doing for our community!

Today we're spotlighting two TFTV alumni. Galen McCaw just debuted the pilot episode of his new podcast Epilogue Podcast Project, a storytelling project aimed at helping people who have experienced or been affected by issues relating to mental illness, addiction, trauma, and loss - something vitally important to recognize and talk about, especially in the current climate.

The pilot episode features another TFTV alumna Hannah Blair Akins, and tracks her family's journey following the loss of Hannah's sister Brie to suicide. Hannah’s powerful senior thesis film ‘Porchlight' - a quiet drama about the night her family learned of her sister's fate - debuted at last year's ‘I Dream in Widescreen.'

Visit msha.ke/epiloguestories/ to listen to Hannah's journey.

We think it is important to share these kinds of stories to help spread awareness, reduce stigma, and offer assistance. We would also like to remind every student, faculty, or staff member that CAPS is open 24/7. See UAZ Campus Health Service for additional information. ... See MoreSee Less
