You Rock!

You ROCK!

You have made a difference in the lives of more than 1.8 million visitors to ReachOut.com in 2015, either by your donation (over $1000 on Global Giving in December alone!), sharing our materials or social media posts, or reading about the great work of our volunteers. You make ReachOut possible!

You are the reason we receive messages like this:  "thanks to all of you, i am still here today." - Will, 20, Forum Member

We want to celebrate our 2015 wins with you:

  • In 2015, we increased US site traffic by 107% by curating and publishing youth developed relevant content and resources.
  • In the past three years, ReachOut has trained over 80 California youth in empathetic peer support and mental health advocacy.
  • In the past year, we trained and facilitated youth volunteers to speak publicly about their mental health lived experience at a variety of venues, including the 7th International Together Against Stigma Conference and the Empathy and Compassion in Society Conference.

As 2016 begins, we continue to need your support in helping ReachOut make an impact on the 30% of teens feeling hopeless each year, by providing mental health information, coping skills, peer support and building resilience.  Please consider telling your friends and family about ReachOut.com - share the link on your blogs or social networks, use the tell-a-friend feature on the project page to email your network, or just bring us up in conversation.

Wishing you a healthy and happy New Year!
