You Matter
School campuses are in a state of flux. A mental health crisis on campus is exposing questions of meaning, purpose, and connection, resulting in fear and violence. And the world is only getting more complex. Amid these challenges, students are also the least hopeful they’ve been in history.
This moment of flux is also a moment of opportunity. What if students took the pain they experienced from bullying, isolation and hopelessness, and used it as motivation to create inclusive environments? What if instead of being the reason they don’t go to school, become violent, harm themselves, it’s the reason they find hope and purpose?
Through heightened education, community mobilization, advocacy and youth empowerment, Be Strong strives to save and change lives by shining a light on social environment safety and acceptance, enhance knowledge about the help/resources available and aggregate professional service providers. Join the Be Strong Movement.
