JOY
INSIDE TEARS
ABOUT US
I founded Joy Inside Tears after the loss of my son Noah to suicide in 2021. It became my mission to shed light on suicide prevention and mental health. By sharing my story, I hope to bring awareness of the stigma associated with mental health and to encourage early intervention.
OUR MISSION
To provide mental health and suicide prevention resources, advocacy, support, education training, counseling referrals, and coaching to the community.
OUR VISION
End the stigma associated with mental health for those who suffer in silence.
BOARD MEMBERS
Our team at Joy Inside Tears is made up of individuals who are passionate about bringing awareness to mental health and supporting those who need it the most. As advocates, we are committed to standing by our community members every step of the way. See the faces behind our mission below.
