Change is our mission.
Changing the conversation about mental health.
Changing the way we present mental wellness and incorporating it into childhood development.
Changing the daily lives of those who struggle with their mental wellness.
Austin will continue to be a light for those who are lost in the darkness and his funds will be the hand to help them hold on.
Austin Changed My Mind
During Austin's struggles with anxiety and depression, I had the opportunity to see mental health through his eyes. I listened to his perspective and learned from the way he experienced mental health, treatment and the world around him.
Those conversations changed the way I think about mental health — particularly how we talk about it with young people, the importance of connection and belonging, and the difference the right kind of support can make at the right time.
Austin Changed My Mind is more than a phrase. It is a commitment to use what Austin taught me through his life and experiences to help make things better for other young people.
I can't change Austin's story. But through the Fund created in his memory, we can help support organizations working to change someone else's.
