'Feel It All:' Athlete Drew Petersen brings mental health story to Idaho amid concerning suicide rates

Feel It All Film
/
Drew Petersen

When it comes to suicide, Idaho is often found among the list of states in our country with the highest rates. That’s why a group of Boise nonprofits are working together to address the issue with a series of events meant to raise awareness and spark change.

At the center of this effort is Drew Petersen. He's a professional skier and ultrarunner who knows what it’s like to struggle with mental health. Petersen has a whole film centered around the topic called “Feel It All," which will be screening several times at the Egyptian Theatre throughout the week.

He joined Idaho Matters to talk more.
