We wanted to give you a heartfelt update on our mission to make a real impact in the lives of LGBTQ children facing the tough challenges of suicidal ideation and self-harm. We know these struggles can be incredibly daunting, and we're committed to providing the support and resources needed to make a difference.
While traditional suicide prevention trainings are a great start, they often miss the mark when it comes to addressing the unique needs of those dealing with chronic suicidal ideation and self-harm, especially among LGBTQ youth. That's where we come in! Your donations to this program are doing something truly special – we're taking the foundation laid by QPR and expanding it to give parents of LGBTQ children the in-depth information and resources they need to help their kids not just survive, but thrive.
The Mama Dragons team has been hard at work, using the funds provided to create the blueprint for our suicide prevention curriculum. We've also been busy writing grants to help secure additional funds that will help us bring this vision to life through an engaging eLearning platform. The initial program outline is complete, but we're not done yet – we need your continued support to take the next crucial steps.
Your generous donations have already made a significant impact, and we're so grateful for your ongoing support. Together, we're building a program that will make a real difference in the lives of LGBTQ children and their families. Thank you for being a crucial part of this journey – we couldn't do it without you!
