Laugh and Learn IV

Our 2021 annual comedy event, Laugh and Learn IV, held Friday, June 18th was a success! For the 4th year, experienced comics from our chapter mentored new comics in weaving their recovery story and journey into a stand up comedy routine.

Will we be making fun of mental health challenges? Absolutely not!

Kelly Wilson, our mentor for our first Laugh and Learn, says,

“While we take mental illness seriously, all of the life that happens around our mental health can get pretty funny. The ridiculous stuff. The stuff that makes no sense, and makes us angry or sad or scared.

The tough stuff is where the funny can be found.”
