When did you join CC?

I joined Chasing Change in 2016 after losing my younger brother Ben to suicide. Ben was 22 years old and it was a complete shock to everyone.

Why did you join CC & what you hope to achieve?

My goals are to keep starting the conversation around mental health with people who may have never even though about suicide prevention or mental health before.

What is your mantra/life motto?
