Pretty amazing statement and insight from Hedman of Tampa Bay Lightning. I hope we can all learn how important is.

Hi all! This message is from Kristina Sabetta dated yesterday. Thanks for keeping us informed Kristina.

HB 2093 is scheduled for a third read tomorrow. (Today) This bill would repeal Arizona’s requirement that schools include mental health instruction in health education.

Let’s stop this nonsense from moving forward.

Mental health education helps students recognize warning signs of emotional distress, reduces stigma, and encourages early help-seeking. Removing this requirement would weaken an important prevention tool for Arizona students.

Please consider sending out your own action alert to your members and networks today and encourage them to contact their legislators and ask them to vote NO on HB 2093.

Feel free to copy and paste any of the language below in your own communications.

Advocates can find their legislators here:

Thank you for helping protect mental health education for Arizona students.

They say a barn is the heart of a farm, but for The JEM Foundation, it’s even more. It’s a classroom, a sanctuary, and a place where lives can be changed.

We aren't just building a barn; we’re raising opportunities for healing. Every dollar donated to our Barn Build Fundraiser goes directly toward creating a space where youth with mental health issues can thrive.

Help us lay the foundation!

To donate, visit the link in bio or via GoFundMe at: https://gofund.me/f7fb5409f or directly on our website at: https://thejemfoundation.com/donate/

Hi all, as you know, we have been trying to get the barn constructed so we can start hosting youth at Jacob's Ranch and begin animal therapy and other outdoor therapies to help kids struggling with mental health challenges. We have been trying to install it ourselves, but we need help. We are going to have to hire some help, but we don't have the funds. We are raising money to hire a crew to help with the construction. Can you donate any amount to reach our goal? You can donate directly to GoFundMe or through our website at https://thejemfoundation.com/donate. Thank you!

Our barn is going up fast! This build isn’t just for animals—it’s for healing. Every beam brings us closer to opening our animal therapy barn and creating a place of hope and connection. 💚
