Students painted a portion of a mural sponsored by the Berks County Suicide Prevention Task Force ruOK Berks? The 45-foot-tall mural鈥檚 theme is 鈥淗OPE.鈥 West Reading and the Greater Reading area are home to many murals, and local art teacher Michael Miller showed the public art and downtown West Reading to students, who took a walking tour prior to breaking out their paintbrushes. College of Medicine students are just some of the community members helping to add the area鈥檚 newest mural; ruOK Berks? is working to engage as many people in the project as possible to help raise awareness of the services they provide. 鈥淏eing a part of something to help reduce suicide, and the stigma surrounding it, is critically important,鈥 said Karen Restifo, MD, JD, regional vice dean, 糖心Vlog at Tower Health. 鈥淲e鈥檝e made a promise that our students and faculty will be dedicated to the health and wellbeing of the community, and this project is a clear demonstration of that commitment.鈥
