'I don't want the next generation to normalize mental health but instead to make it normal to ask for and get help."
Avery
"Mental health is such an important topic, yet it falls through the cracks so often and leaves kids to feel vulnerable about what they are experiencing in their lives. I am so grateful for this opportunity to take part in helping bring relief to anyone struggling with their mental health."
Ritwik
"Having seen the challenges mental health can create, I know how vital it is to ask for help. By becoming an ambassador, I can use my voice and spread knowledge about mental health in my community."

"Some of the most comforting words in the universe are ‘me too.’ That moment when you find out that your struggle is also someone else’s struggle, that you’re not alone, and that others have been down the same road."

"The positive postulation of "inclusion" and "
co-existence" is close to my heart, and I firmly believe that by integrating these ideas into our lives, we can mitigate many of the mental health issues that we face today."

Emiliano
"I have struggled with my own mental health, have greatly improved it, and believe that I can aid others in improving their own. I want to help and inspire other young men to improve themselves and create a community based on self improvement and improving mental health."

"I want people to understand that it is okay to not be okay and that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
My goal is to reduce the stigma around mental health so that those who need help are comfortable enough to ask
for it."
