Journey of Hope will be held on Wednesday, February 5, at New Life Community Church in Pismo Beach, from 6:00-8:00, and Thursday, February 6, at Cuesta College, North County Campus in Paso Robles, from 6:00-8:00.

Journey of Hope is a free community forum on mental wellness dedicated to exploring different ways to talk about mental health, contribute to the understanding of mental health, and to promote resiliency and recovery among community members. This year the forum features comedian Adam Grabowski. Grabowski, who has been performing for 10 years, has appeared on America’s Got Talent, and was also voted College Comic of the Year.

Adam speaks about his depression and anxiety, which empowers individuals to talk about their own mental health experiences. His message about finding your voice and understanding that you are not alone leaves audiences feeling empowered and connected through the art of comedy. He says, “There is and will always be things we can laugh about, discuss, and relate to one another. These things can bring us together…. My job is to facilitate that!”

Both forums will have a community resource fair featuring wellness agencies including Transitions-Mental Health Association, County of San Luis Obispo Behavioral Health Department, Cuesta College Student Health Center, and CenCal Health. 

Funding for this program is provided by the County of San Luis Obispo through the Mental Health Services Act, in collaboration with the County Behavioral Health Department, Cuesta College’s Health Center, and CenCal Health.
