September is Su***de Prevention Monthโ€”

a time to raise awareness, offer support, and remind each other that every life is worth fighting for. This month, we focus on those who are battling suicidal thoughts, those who have lost someone to su***de, those who have attempted, and those who may feel alone or scared to speak up. Itโ€™s a reminder that mental health struggles are real, but so is hope. Together, we can break the stigma, provide the support needed, and ensure that everyone knows they are not alone. Letโ€™s be the light for each other and spread love, compassion, and understanding. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’™

POV: You're designing a space where kids will actually WANT to talk about their feelings ๐Ÿ’™

Coming in Early 2026:
Natural light that doesn't feel clinical
Spaces that feel safe, not scary
Areas where families can be together
Rooms designed for how kids actually move and play

The little details matter when you're 8 and walking into therapy for the first time.

Our team got to walk through Memphis's future Children & Youth Wellness Center today.

Every corner is being built with one question: 'How do we make this feel like hope, not hospital?'

Special thanks to Turner MidSouth for letting us come see the work in progress and your continued dedication to behavioral health construction!

Great energy at our Crisis Center on Broad Ave this past Tuesday! We hosted our Regions 7 meeting, bringing together leaders from local law enforcement, mental health providers, schools, and non-profits. The goal? To get a jump on the 2025 Needs Assessment and share updates on new programs. This kind of collaboration is how we build a stronger, healthier Memphis. Thanks to everyone who came and contributed.
