OUR MISSION
Our program seeks to address the mental health of teens ages 10-17 here in Salt Lake City. We have classes, support groups, and trainings for teens and adults alike to come together and discuss mental health. We also have fundraisers, such as the “Brain Run 5K” that will be held in September to raise awareness of mental health wellness here in Utah.

FOUNDER: EMMA ANDERSON
When I was in high school a few years ago I had a classmate of mine die from suicide. I’ve also had close friends who have shared their experiences with having depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders. Now, in these situations I didn’t really know what to say to help them with these issues that they were going through. I wanted to help them, but I didn’t know how. Ultimately my hope for this program is to create an environment where these skills are taught, and people feel safe talking openly about their experiences with mental health.
