About revvingforriley
Our Mission
Our nonprofit organization is dedicated to empowering kids, teenagers and adults by fostering a culture where it's okay not to be okay. We strive to educate and raise awareness so that all individuals can recognize the signs and symptoms of suicide, equipping them with the knowledge and tools to recognize these warning signs in themselves and others. Through our programs, we aim to teach how to have open and honest conversations about mental health and suicide, emphasizing that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. We are committed to providing access to local and national resources, including the suicide prevention hotline 988, to ensure that no one feels alone in their struggles and that help is always within reach.
