Program Updates
To help reduce the spread of COVID-19, the County of San Luis Obispo Behavioral Health Department has postponed all in person trainings and events, including SLO County Friday Night Live programming. Since late March, all FNL programming has gone virtual, with individual and countywide chapter meetings, events, and challenges.
With SLO County schools beginning the year with distance learning, Friday Night Live will continue to host virtual chapter meetings. To get more information about FNL at your school, please view the Programs page, and sign up for your school's Remind updates. Thank you for your understanding at this time!

Stress, Coping, and Resiliency
As COVID-19 continues to affect our day-to-day activities, people may be feeling fear, burnout, frustration, and hopelessness. Students especially may experience these feelings, as they are coping with not being able to see friends, play sports, or participate in their regular extra curricular activities.
FNL wants to remind our students that they are strong, resilient, and capable. Know that you are not alone, and that you have people to support you. Below you will find several activities for mindfulness and stress reduction that can help calm your mind and center your body. While we may not know what the next day will bring, we can be sure that this time will pass. Until then, we're in this together.
