The Pierson Project

The Pierson Project The power to change someones life is available here. By helping others we can help ourselves. Your eyes open.

When given an official diagnosis of a neurological disorder, mental illness, or any other disease, your world changes. Not because you weren't seeing before but because now you can see clearly. So now that we know where we are headed... how do we get there? In order to change the story we have to first know what the story is. Piers Phillips is a 12 year old public speaker who speaks about his own

experiences living with Tourette Syndrome and Mental Illness. Accepting who you are, how you are, illnesses and all, is okay and is his edit to the story most of us are used to when it comes to mental illness. His passion is to help work towards ACCEPTANCE for those with hidden disabilities and not just awareness. The mission is to provide information, education, and tools to help those in need. By speaking out and educating others on what it is like to live with a mental illness he hopes to make this world a better place and show others that a diagnosis doesn't mean that you are any less capable or valuable.

Our Story

Pierson Phillips was brave, bold, giving, and kind. He was an advocate and public speaker who made a difference when it came to the subject of mental illness and su***de. Pierson spoke from his own personal experience and his insight was invaluable to those wanting to learn more about youth and su***de. Sadly, Pierson lost his battle at the age of 14.

The Pierson Project was started in order to continue his legacy of giving and educating by helping the youth of the Kansas City Metro area. To help end the stigma and shame that prevent too many from asking for help. To help provide support to those in need. And to help empower the youth who are our future. Because saving just one life is worth it, and everyone is worth saving.
