About:
We did what’s called CODA games — Co-Existing Disorders Awareness games with each Varsity & JV team at the end of each season in conjunction with “The Harris Project”, which is an organization created by a local parent (Ardsley – Westchester County) whose son Harris battled with Mental Health Disorders, coupled with Drug Abuse / Misuse or Substance Abuse. As a result Harris took his own life. She started this foundation to spread awareness about co-existing disorders and to remove the stigma from it, identity it, and provide information on how to recognize and treat these co-occurring disorders.
