suicide awareness

Halt the Hurt

This is an organization I started last year when I was 14. It is to spread the awareness of teen suicide and to give people struggling with suicidal thoughts someone to talk to.

"Into the Light" Suicide Awareness and Prevention

In the Spring of 2005, two students at Person High School in North Carolina committed suicide. Everyone around the community wanted to do something about it, but no one was sure exactly how to do it. Many of the students of the school wanted to create plaques, draw, and have a full memorial for the two students. This is when I stepped up to the challenge and said, "Why don't we create something long term, to prevent this from ever happening again?" I looked up valuable information from the American Foundation for Suicide prevention, as well as local records.
