Detroit Mercy will host an uplifting event for students focused on mental well‑being and thriving during the college experience on Thursday, Feb. 12, from 12:30-2 p.m., in the Student Union Ballroom.
As part of The i’Mpossible Project, Josh Rivedal couples stand‑up comedy with a keynote designed to teach students “How to live mentally well and crush it in college,” bringing mental health awareness to the McNichols Campus.
Rivedal has dedicated his life and career to bring awareness to mental health issues, suicide prevention and social change. In May 2011, he launched the one-man show and suicide prevention keynote Kicking My Blue Genes in the Butt at Baruch College in New York City. In 2013, Skookum Hill published his memoir, The Gospel According to Josh: A 28-Year Gentile Bar Mitzvah, now on the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s recommended reading list. In 2014, Rivedal launched The i’Mpossible Project and since then has released four additional books. He continues to provide programming that positively influences and affects people worldwide–providing hope, help and life-saving skills.
This event is open to all students and offers an encouraging space to learn, laugh and strengthen mental well‑being.
