With support from our grantors and donors, Elyssa’s Mission is thrilled to offer the Hope Squad Program free of cost to elementary, middle and high schools in Illinois. Our team provides hands-on support at every phase of the program: planning, training, implementation, and data collection, which demonstrates students’ learning and highlights positive outcomes stemming from the program. Our goal is to positively impact school communities by reducing stigma around mental health and make suicide prevention part of the school’s culture.
