SPEAK UP

For the past 10 years, Speak Up has remained deeply committed to strengthening teen mental health and preventing su***de in our community. Our primary initiative has been funding Sources of Strength—an evidence-based, peer-led su***de prevention program that has reached more than 100,000 students across 75 schools in just the last eight years.
