Prevail Inc. announced Brooke Lawson, Mental Health Coordinator at Hamilton Southeastern Schools, has been selected as Prevail’s Hero of the Month.

In early 2018, Lawson reached out to Prevail about starting to offer psycho-educational support groups for sexual assault survivors at Hamilton Southeastern High School and Fishers High School. Over the past two years, she has been instrumental in growing, maintaining and partnering to offer survivor specific services in their schools whether through support groups or acute settings.

After running the first cycle of sexual assault programming, Lawson championed adding Healthy Relationship support groups in both high schools as well. She has also coordinated to ensure that students at Hamilton Southeastern Fishers Academy have been able to receive the assistance of a victim advocate when necessary and appropriate.

Lawson has been dedicated to creating safe spaces in school for young people to receive assistance that facilitates their unique healing journey.
