Zeal’s youth mental health project Live For Tomorrow reaches young people with messages of hope and positive change, right where they spend most of their time: online and in school.
The Projects
Live For Tomorrow Chapters
Live For Tomorrow Chapters are a network of student led groups in high schools that seek to reduce the stigma and discrimination that can often occur around mental health. There are currently 20 Chapters nationwide, and we’re adding more in 2017.
Online Crisis Intervention
In a world-first pilot project, we are proactively identifying and offering immediate interpersonal support to young people in times of crisis on social media. This will be done by a group of trained volunteers (you could be one). We call it Online Crisis Intervention.
