Our vision is to build a nationwide network of teen mental health advocates who educate the youth in their community using the resources and programs developed by our organization. We aspire for all youth to feel confident in preventing and addressing mental health challenges either through self help or reaching out.
If you would like to become an advocate, here is an overview of what this job will entail:
1) Learning about our cause and mental health
2) Learn and practice the presentation (if you would like to present at an event)
3) Prepare/print resources: bracelets, bookmarks, posters
4) Contact schools/other youth organizations (middle schools, religious group, club, friends...etc)
If you would like to fundraise money for purchasing resources, you can try to contact mentalhealth.org
Below are a few videos that can help prepare you for a presentation at an upcoming event:
