They’re the two biggest counties in our state, and both are working to find a solution. It’s a campaign called #ZeroReasonsWhy. After seeing a dramatic rise in teen suicides in Johnson County, superintendents of the six school districts came together to work towards a solution and created the campaign. The message is that there are zero reasons why the community can’t empower, educate, and advocate for teen mental wellness. It is peer-led. Student ambassadors work to start the discussions in their high school and normalize mental health.
