My Story…
As most of you know, my brother committed suicide in 2005. I've often wondered if he'd still be here today, if the quality and availability of counseling, especially for men, was more acceptable and available sixteen years ago.
Second Wind Fund, was started in 2002, after four teen suicides in one school year, at Green Mountain High School. Since then, it has saved the lives of hundreds of our kids. Please join me in continuing to provide quality counseling for kids at risk.
Thank you!
