In light of the reports of an active shooter on the campus of Florida State University, I understand that this news may be deeply upsetting, especially for those with connections to the university.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or simply need someone to talk to our Walk-in and Counseling Center at the Mental Health Association in Vero Beach is here for you. No appointment is needed, just walk in. You are not alone, and support is available.
