The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) states that 76% of young adults will turn to a peer in a time of crisis for support and we are not giving them the tools or resources they need in order to have these conversations.

Our youth want to help and support their friends when they sense that they are having a hard time.

However, they feel unsure, awkward or sometimes worried about how to speak about it and whether the conversation will be helpful.

AFSP stated that our youth who have experienced mental health challenges and crises have said that their friends being there in a supportive and caring way was helpful, and it did not matter too much what exactly they said or did.

So why aren’t we giving them what they need to hold these tough conversations they are having already? Lets work together to teach our youth to have more effective conversations in order to be able to do the hand off to an adult..
