Elyssa’s Mission provides resources to help prevent teen suicide. The community-based organization was founded in 2006 in honor of Elyssa, a bright, gifted and outgoing Chicagoland girl who bravely battled post-traumatic stress disorder and depression. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people ages 15-34. To challenge this statistic, EM has taken a leadership role by educating school communities on depression and suicide.

Elyssa’s Mission provides suicide prevention education to over 260 Illinois schools spanning 19 counties and more than 110 suburbs. Last year EM educated 73,000 students. Over 5,000 students were identified as needing mental health services and 160 students were immediately hospitalized.

I have created a fundraising page to support Elyssa's Mission. The Bowl to Save Young Lives event will continue to provide funding for this vital programming. You can join me by being a part of it.

Please consider making a donation to help me reach my goal of $400 (and my team goal of $2,000).
