Say Hello Save a Life - A Podcast About Teenage Mental Health, Depression And Suicide

Show Notes

Welcome to the Say hello Save a life podcast.

Hello my name is Josh Anderson I am the president and co-founder of JJ’s Hello foundation a youth mental health and suicide prevention foundation created following the loss of our 12 year old son JJ to suicide in 2016 On the say hello save a life podcast we will discuss serious topics including youth mental health, signs of teenage depression and suicide. Because of these topics viewer discretion is advised. The goal of this podcast is to have an open and honest conversation about teenage mental health issues, depression and suicide. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for youth ages 10-24 in the united states. Suicide takes the lives of our youth more than all natural causes of death combined. I hope that you will join our foundation on this journey so that as a community we can end youth suicide and keep any other families from having to live our daily pain.
