PROVIDING AID FOR HURTING PEOPLE
It is a well-known fact that the mental health epidemic has erupted to shocking levels over the last few decades. Every year, 1 in 20 adults in the United States experience a serious mental illness, and 1 in 6 youth aged 6-17 suffer the same fate. Sadly, suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death among people aged 10-14.
