An Upper St. Clair High School junior has been named to the Work2BeWell National Student Advisory Council.

Marina Gzikowski will work with other student leaders from across the nation to increase mental health awareness.

The National Student Advisory Council provided an opportunity for Gzikowski to further her passion for supporting mental health initiatives. At Upper St. Clair High School, she is a co-founder of Mending Mindsets, a student club that aims to increase awareness of mental health.

The student advisory council is a group of teens dedicated to the Work2BeWell program and its vision of empowering teens to thrive through access to mental health resources, authentic connections with peers and educators and digital platforms for resiliency.

As a National Advisory Council member, Gzikowski will represent Pennsylvania students and join a group of 31 other teen council members from around the country. They will be involved in using their voice to amplify the W2BW movement, including planning summits and events, sharing their voice and opinions on a variety of mental health topics, participating in Talk2BeWell podcasts and advocating for legislation locally and nationally.

Gzikowski and other advisory council members are expected to attend at least one virtual meeting each month, as well as additional team meetings.
