Our Impact
Our foundation continues to focus on mental health research that will help guide us in our purpose to help the next family and save the next life. We have begun to form around three key areas:
Local
We have joined the Wood River Mental Well-Being Initiative and have been asked to lead the work group focused on Mobile Crisis Response. We have been researching best practices from model programs in the mountain west.
Regional
We are committed to helping remove the “suicide belt” from the rocky mountains. Together, by sharing community best-practices all the mountain towns can improve our mental well-being. The 2025 Mtn Strong Tour will visit 6 mountain towns this winter and begin to built a powerful collective.
National
Kyler spent more than 4.5 hours at a busy international airport on New Year’s day clearly having a manic episode. Yet, no airport professional or even a caring citizen stopped to offer help. Airports may be one of the most stressful environments in our modern society, so our family is committed to improving all airport’s mental preparedness.
