ForeverU Helps Youth Find Their Place in An Uncertain WorldA Public Service Video Provided By Building Hope For the Future and ForeverU Each day, there's an average of 3,700+ suicide attempts by young people in grades 9-12 and suicide has become the leading cause of death for people aged 10-34. Approximately 90% of those who died from suicide had a mental health condition. Being a teenager is hard enough...but toss in the current climate of society, a pandemic, and changes in educational routines...and a young person may find themselves struggling with their mental health. This is NOT a sign of weakness...this is a sign of being human. The brain is a vital organ just like the heart, lungs, liver etc. The brain must be cared for just like any other vital organ. Seeking help for the brain is no different than seeking help for Asthma in your lungs.
