Trees of Hope is an awareness and fundraising event in Richmond Virginia focused on youth mental health.
This is an opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of families struggling with the mental illnesses of their children right here in our community of Central Virginia. This fundraiser is to support a program that pays for psychological evaluations and gap funding for treatment for children when income and insurance fall short of expensive interventions.
I am an emotionally naked TEDx speaker, and author of the Book, Diary of a Broken Mind. I raised two boys, Richard and Charles, and lost my youngest son, Charles to substance use disorder and suicide June 5, 2015. I help people foster a culture of connection to prevent suicide, reduce substance misuse and find life after loss. My motivational, training and workshop topics include suicide prevention, addiction, mental illness, and grief.
As talented and funny as Charles was, letting other people know they matter was his greatest gift. And now the legacy I try and carry forward in my son's memory.
