Nikyra McCann​ shares her experience during the COVID-19 pandemic in Madison. Her father, now recovered, was diagnosed with COVID-19; she describes the severity of his illness, and what it was like to have to quarantine and not see him during that time. On the other hand, she shares how the change of pace has given her the opportunity to work toward her aspirations and to inspire hope in others. She discusses her work with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI-Dane County) and encourages people to reach out if they are struggling with their mental health.
