JORDAN MEEHAN & CHRIS BENNETT

WALK ‘N’ TALK COLLECTIVE
BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS AND BUILDING UP LIVES

Their motivation to start Walk ‘n’ Talk Collective as a community based charity was birthed through their desire to help break down barriers of stigma and shame and to build up the lives of those affected by mental and emotional struggles. With their proven ability of establishing rapport and relationships, Jordan and Chris believe there must be a connection before the direction will change.
