Our Mission
Our Mission
Future Minds is an organization that aims to represent and empower student voices from across the state into one central organization to end the mental health/suicide crisis affecting the youth. We provide young adults with education, advocacy, and community engagement to eliminate stigma, raise awareness, and prioritize emotional well-being. By rallying youth leaders from across the state around the shared mission of tackling the youth mental health crisis, we aspire to utilize their collective power to create a widespread and meaningful impact across Massachusetts.
Young people today face historic rates of mental health issues that can lead to serious emotional suffering and functional impairment as adults if left unaddressed. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI):
1 in 6 youth Report experiencing negative emotions all the time or often
Suicide is the second-leading cause of death among people ages 15 to 24 in the U.S.
Teens want schools to play a big role in their mental health, and they trust the information they get there
Anxiety, depression, and eating disorders are among the most common diagnoses.
Stigma and lack of access to care prevent many from seeking help.
Early intervention improves outcomes and can prevent more severe, lasting consequences.
Our organization strives to provide the critical support, resources, and education pertaining to mental health that young people are in desperate need of. By promoting help-seeking behaviors and awareness campaigns, we aim to revamp youth mental health across Massachusetts. Get involved today to be part of the solution.
