Join Generation Dayton for an interactive dialogue with Jodi Long, Associate Director for the Montgomery County Alcohol, Drug Addiction & Mental Health Services (ADAMHS) Board, on the short and long term impacts of the pandemic on young professionals and tips for building resiliency for mental wellness moving into 2021.
