In a bright spot for Spokane’s students and families, the founder of Light A Lamp has successfully brought mental health resources to 28 schools across the Spokane area, according to a report from NonStop Local KHQ.

The initiative reflects a growing community commitment to student well-being, ensuring that young people in dozens of local schools have access to mental health support. Reaching 28 schools is a meaningful milestone, extending the organization’s reach across a wide swath of the region’s educational community.

Efforts like Light A Lamp’s serve as a reminder that local nonprofits and community leaders are actively working to fill critical gaps in student support — and that Spokane’s schools are better equipped because of it.
