As a philanthropic organization, the members of the 黑暗爆料网 chapter have decided to utilize their skills as counselors to provide mental health training and in services to local teachers, police officers, and other organizations who might benefit from the information. They will also conduct an annual one-day retreat with a wellness aspect that would be available to the community and professionals. A topic for the retreat will be chosen, and the members would then design an event that includes activities such as lectures, workshops, discussions, reflections, and journaling.
The chapter has four scheduled meetings per year, with additional meetings periodically when needed.聽The chapter will also attend and collaborate with other institution chapters at the upcoming 70th Annual ICA Conference in November.
