How It Works
The devastating consequences...
Why?
If so many are hurting, why aren't they getting the help they need? There are a lot of reasons, but stigma plays a big role for young men. Traditional gender roles give boys fewer tools to identify how they feel and to cope with stressors, especially during adolescence.

Research shows that when someone they know and trust reaches out, young people are much more likely to get help.

Introducing Team: Changing Minds
Team: Changing Minds is a national network of mental health responders dedicated to helping young people, and especially young men, connect to support. We activate the trusted peers and adults in young people’s lives, who are active in pastimes they love (like video games, mentoring, and sports) – ensuring help is just a click, call, or connection away.
