Not Alone Totes are care packages full of resources mailed to individuals new to their journeys with OCD. The form to request a Tote for yourself of a loved one will be available in the next few weeks.

In the meantime, we are collecting donations! This can be any sort of mental health resource of other comforting item. We would need at least 30 of each item, mailed to us by the end of September. Your name/logo will be included with each tote, as well as on our website.

Please help us spread the word!

📖 For the back-to-school season in August and September, we are sending notes of encouragement to those with anxiety about going back to school.

We know how hard the transition from summer to school can be, and we want to remind others they aren’t alone with the anxiety they might be feeling.

Whether a student, teacher, aide, etc. we will send you a free, handmade note of encouragement as part of your back to school transition.
