Why We Need To Start The Conversation

On average, 130 people complete suicide in a day in the United States. Over 700,000 suicides are reported each year, with many more going unreported due to stigma.

You can help change that.

Educate yourself and facilitate proactive prevention in your community. Only then can we shatter the silence around our mental health.

Hope For The Day’s signature mental health education programming

Hope For The Day®’s education programming is inspired from lived-experience best practices, and endorsed by H.F.T.D's clinical advisory board. The goal of our work is to provide tools for early recognition and intervention to disrupt the highest risk factors for mental health crisis and suicide. We engage all audiences from adolescent to seniors, and we can engage any community space including, academic, professional, or general populations.

Our Programming:

The Things We Don’t Say

The Things We Don’t Say is Hope For The Day®’s signature mental health education program teaching any individual the general skills needed to take action on our personal mental health and be supportive to peers in our community.

The Things We Don’t Say – Identity and Orientation

Identity and Orientation is Hope For The Day®’s mental health education and outreach platform that discusses the unique intersection of L.G.B.T.Q+ experiences and mental health.

86 the Silence - Hospitality Industry

H.F.T.D.'s 86 The Silence workshop is a program designed to teach individuals in the hospitality industry how to understand self-care and be supportive to proactive mental health care for others. We press the discussion about stigma, its impact on individuals and communities, and teach practical skills for early recognition of mental health challenges that often go unaddressed due to the silence of stigma, building to a crisis stage.

Proactive Workplaces

Our corporate workplace education curriculum and action engagement program is focused on partner-specific, customizable strategies aimed at educating employees, as well as raising company-wide awareness of available resources, both internally and externally, in each community.

Illinois Schools

Through the generous support we receive from our donors, we can offer our education programming (45 minutes) for free to Chicagoland schools (grades 7-12)!
