A January snowstorm brought more than 18 inches of snow to northeastern Pennsylvania, but inside LVH–Schuylkill’s Adolescent Behavioral Health Unit, it became a moment of joy.

Staff gathered snow, decorations and even makeshift mitten socks so kids could build snowmen – some for the first time. Laughter filled the unit as a simple activity turned into a meaningful reminder that every child deserves a moment to just be a kid. ❄️⛄

Warm your heart with the full story – snowmen included: https://bit.ly/4cqCqIu.
