Over the past year, Sunshine Silver Lining has continued to grow through meaningful partnerships with schools, healthcare organizations, nonprofits, and community leaders. As we move toward 2026, we wanted to share a quick update on what’s new, what’s evolving, and how we can continue working together to advance mental health literacy, communications, and well-being in every space we touch.
TL;DR
Save this post for when you’re ready to explore what’s new and see how we can collaborate in 2026!
What’s New
Our flagship program continues to expand across schools, healthcare, and community organizations with new modules on Non-Suicidal Self-Injury (NSSI) and Compassion Fatigue & Boundaries. We’ve also developed a specialized version designed for leadership teams focused on fostering resilience and a healthy workplace culture.
Advancing Mental Health Literacy
This year brought continued collaboration across Vermont and beyond, including ongoing advisory work with the Mental Health Literacy Collaborative. Together, we’re building bridges between research, practice, and everyday understanding of mental health.
Storytelling 4 Advocacy
Our newest initiative, Storytelling 4 Advocacy, draws from the Living Proof Advocacy model and empowers individuals, schools, and communities to share their stories with authenticity and impact. The program helps participants connect personal narrative to purpose, advocacy, and collective change.
Strategic Communications & Wellbeing Consulting
From keynote presentations to organizational consulting, Sunshine Silver Lining’s work continues to merge strategic communications with wellbeing. Our goal is simple: to
help teams and small business owners live their values out loud—aligning purpose with daily practice and communication.
Moving Forward
As we plan for the new year, I’m sharing updated materials that outline opportunities for collaboration:
