Hey guys, I recently learned about a charity called the Mental Health Foundation of Western Michigan. I wanted to spread the word about this great organization. Their goal is to make everyone aware of the mental health disorders that occur in teens. Teens suffer from many mental disorders every day. These disorders can range from depression, to eating disorders, to anxiety. One in five people are suffering from a mental disorder. The sad thing is that people are afraid to get help. They are afraid of the stigma that is associated with having a disorder. However, when they do not get help the disorder progresses. This organization wants to inform students, parents, teachers, and everyone so that they can see the symptoms and prevent a disorder. One of the most important things the Mental Health Organization focuses on is suicide prevention. Suicide is the third leading cause of death in youth ages 15 to 24. Live, Laugh, Love wants to reach out to students who are struggling with mental health disorders so that they can be the best they can be, The Mental Health Foundation travels to schools to preform assemblies to inform students about how they can help themselves and those around them. I have personally stuggled with an eating disorder, so this organization really hits home for me, If you would like any information about the organization you can contact me, or email the executive director, Christy Buck, at christybuc@ti-gr.com. Thanks :)
