How Do We Spend Your Membership Funds and Donations?

  • $40 provides materials for an 8-week Peer-to-Peer class, or an 8-week Family-to-Family Class.
  • $150 provides one Ending the Silence presentation given to middle school or high school students in the classroom setting. This gives students an opportunity to learn symptoms and indicators of mental health conditions as well as ideas about how to help themselves, friends, or family members who need support.
