Brag Book: Kaylee Barton
Kaylee is a senior at Roosevelt High School in Wyandotte. She founded the Peopleโs Project to help battle youth mental illness. โThe Peopleโs Project is very near and dear to her heart," said Kayleeโs dad, Jerry Barton. "One of her best friends committed suicide several years ago and it deeply affected her, and still does. Thatโs why she and her friend came up with the idea for Peopleโs Project and took it to their counselor to get it approved as a school-sanctioned group.โFor more information on the Peopleโs Project, go here or here.
