This week, LEAD is celebrating the life and mourning the tragic loss of one of our co-founders, Megghan Duffy.
On November 6th, Megghan Duffy lost a courageous battle to Ewing Sarcoma, a type of rare cancer. Megghan played a pivotal role in founding LEAD (at 16 y/o!) and revolutionizing mental health education nationwide.
In response to Megghan's passing, LEAD is creating an online course aimed at supporting the mental health of young people battling terminal illnesses like cancer, in addition to supporting the mental health of their loved ones and caretakers.
This e-course will be dedicated to and inspired by Megghan, who spoke often about the need for mental health support for cancer fighters and survivors.
