Welcome everyone to the official "Stop The Silence" Blog!
My name is Cassie Gookin and for my Girl Scout Gold Award* project, I have decided to create "Stop The Silence: Support Resources For Everyone"!
My goal through this project is to bring awareness to invisible illnesses and how they affect different people in daily life; as well as, share various support resources. For those who don’t know, an invisible illness is any medical condition that is not outwardly visible to others, even healthcare professionals. There are many conditions that are considered as invisible “silent” illnesses or diseases. With this project, I will be researching and sharing about as many as possible with first-hand accounts from different people.
I hope that "Stop The Silence" will be able to help people feel united through this issue and bring awareness to others.
If you are interested in volunteering on our team or sharing your story, make sure to contact me! I would love to hear from you!
*The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout can earn.
