The Kristen Amerson Youth Foundation was created to honor the memory and legacy of Kristen Amerson. Unfortunately, Kristen died by suicide in 2014 at the age of eleven. She never had the chance to reach her potential or discover her purpose, and her family vowed to keep her spirit alive, which is the inspiration for the foundation. The foundation provides suicide prevention resources, mental health education, outreach, and advocacy for children, adolescents, and their families. Its goal is to prevent youth suicide by increasing mental health awareness, promoting positivity, and encouraging healthy behaviors. We hope that the foundation’s services empower young people by providing support that encourages healthier lives.
