Youth Mental Health Prevention as Critical and Effective

Make a donation.

Sponsor a local school community to help children thrive.

37% of children with mental and behavioral disorders drop out of school resulting in life long challenges.

On average, there is an 11 year gap between the onset of symptoms and treatment for mental and behavioral disorders because they can be hard to identify and there is a shortage of professionals.
