The Urgent Need
Did You Know?
25+ teens attempt suicide daily in the state of Utah!
Suicide rates have risen 71% in the last decade for youth ages 10-24.
Chances are you or someone you know loves a child who has contemplated or attempted suicide.
When a teen considers suicide, they will usually make that attempt within 24-48 hours.
We CANNOT WAIT…SO How do we spot the kids struggling?
They may be the high achievers, athletes, or outgoing students, or the kid sitting alone at a lunch table. The truth is that every kid will struggle at some point
Internally our kids are dealing with feelings of despair, isolation, and hopelessness.
How We’re Making a Difference
We Prepare ALL Teens for Life’s Challenges Before, During, and After a Crisis Hits
Unlike traditional programs, we don’t wait for warning signs. We empower teens to handle struggles proactively with research-based tools of resilience no matter where they are at on their journey.
Every child will face challenges, and we empower them to be ready. Our Ambassador Program teaches all youth the resilience and empowerment they need to manage life’s difficulties, preventing small struggles from turning into crises.
