We walked our +group of Game Academy students through our team’s event planning process, and in +less than an hour they put together a rock-solid plan for a community arts +program to raise awareness about mental health issues, including how they'd use +data to capture the event's positive impact (where I fit in). I hope the vision +can become a reality before long…! + +Massive thanks the Urban Arts team for hosting us and for all that you do +through the Game Academy.
