A WORD FROM OUR FOUNDER
We train college students — young men and women — in mental fitness so they can face life’s hardest moments with strength, not silence. We’re building a culture that talks openly about adversity, equips students with tools to handle it, and reminds them that hope is never out of reach.
But here’s the truth: what’s happening right now isn’t working.
Suicide is the second-leading cause of death among college-aged students.
1 in 3 college students report experiencing persistent feelings of sadness or hopelessness.
Rates of depression, anxiety, and substance abuse have more than doubled over the past decade on campuses nationwide.
The traditional model — awareness campaigns with no follow-up, one-off seminars with no action — isn’t enough.
Students need more than posters and pamphlets. They need training. They need structure. They need a game plan.
That’s what we provide.
