OUR WHY

Statistics show both depression and suicide rates have increased exponentially for not only adults but for children as young as seven. At this time there is no solid plan in place to address this national crisis.

 

• 1 in 6 U.S. children aged 2–8 years (17.4%) have a diagnosed mental, behavioral, or developmental disorder. Source: CDC

 

• 7.1% of children aged 3-17 years (approximately 4.4 million) have diagnosed anxiety. Source: CDC

 

• Suicide is the fourth leading cause of death among 15-19 year-olds. (WHO, 2021)

 

The consequences of failing to address these mental health conditions can extend to adulthood, impairing both physical and mental health and limiting opportunities to lead fulfilling lives as adults.

​

Help us be a part of the solution.

 

Through personal development programs like Pursuit of Balance, we can effectively address the urgency to improve the social and emotional  well-being of both children and the adults who nurture and surround them.
