The SAFE Summit

Donation protected
The SAFE is an experience created by Shenae Curry to bring awareness to and offer guidance for millennials struggling with mental health stability and some form of substance abuse. While many factors vary, my goal is to bring people together; both those struggling and those who can offer guidance in hopes of combating one of this generation's growing epidemics.

The program is called THE SAFE because I intend to create a safe space for people to share experiences. Phones will be confiscated to ensure privacy and trust.

Approximately one in five millennials are experiencing depression and anxiety and 31% of America's alcoholic population are young adults. The SAFE is targeted to young professionals of color who may or may not identify themselves as substance abusers and struggle with depression/anxiety.

Based on a study conducted by the American Psychological Association, findings suggest a connection between stress and age. Millennials report a higher level of stress than any other generation and appear to have difficulty coping. In addition, many Millennials say they feel isolated/lonely due to stress, even though they report having a number of close, personal relationships.

In order for The SAFE to run as smoothly as possible, I need your help!
I believe that this initiative can help to change the lives of those who really need it. With your donations, I'll be able to book a venue to host the summit, offer refreshments and make the experience an enjoyable one. 

If there are any ways you would like to be involved with The SAFE whether you're a therapist, have insight to offer or would like to be involved, feel free to email me. Anything helps!
