Attended the Young Women in Excellence Breakfast this morning! So honored to be invited and featured in their presentation. Met so many strong women this morning! Thank you so much to Youth Villages for hosting- your services help me on a daily basis. Great to learn more about the intensive, family based treatment they offer to me and so many others. Great start to the morning, I was in awe of all the inspiring stories, philosophies and novels. I am so grateful to have had this oppurtunity to make new connections, be inspired, and spread the word! Truly so many excellent women- and men:)
Lucky to have such great supports through this process:)
So grateful to connect with First Lady of the Commonwealth, Mrs. Baker! She and I met months ago in connection with Project 351 and her own nonprofit Wonderfund: two amazing organizations for youth.
Honored to sit alongside you as young people that have suffered greatly but have found the support they needed from Youth Villages. Darilyn, beyond amazed by you, your story, and your progress.
Without you, I wouldn’t be here today, thanks for inspiring me day in and day out.

I am a 19 year old survivor, advocate, and student. 3 years ago, 13 Reasons to Fly was founded while I was living in a hospital battling mental illnesses, the original idea was to combat the message of the show Thirteen Reasons Why. Instead, 13RTF was created in the image of hope, that there are so many reasons to live- to fly. With your help, we can raise mental health awareness, spread that “it’s okay not to be okay” and make the world a better place.
