Voice Up
Lift, Live, Level Your Voice Up
Our project is a first step in raising awareness about a national health epidemic among our youth, young adults, and parents.
Our youth, teens, and young adults are reporting the highest levels of loneliness on record according to the U.S. Surgeon General. There are also national health concerns about the supports available for parents.
Our work is going to help change that through simple actions that bring people together for the common good, focused on lifting people up, and creating stronger in person connections.
Our mission is to transform how families support a healthier way for a better life. We are open to all.
We are a faith-based initiative held accountable to the following principles

Learn about the Founder of Voice Up, Art
The Truth for Our Youth
Our mission is to transform how families support a healthier way for a better life.
Yes, we work with schools (PreK - College), organizations, and communities of all types. Let's start today and personalize a program based on the needs of your community. Our team has secured over $30 million in funding (private, local, and federal) in support of education innovation and health equity. Let's start today.
Dear Families,
Now more than ever behavioral health plays an important role in our ability to provide the best future for our community. The U.S. Surgeon General has declared loneliness, a decline in meaningful and lasting social connections, as one of America’s most pressing health epidemics. The increasing mental health demands on parents has also been declared a public health emergency.
We help your community select, nurture, and develop leaders that launch conversations and actions that build stronger relationships and open new doors for building more caring communities.
We’d love the opportunity to customize a program for you.
1. We'll help your students create and share their own stories as a community fundraiser.
2. We'll write a grant to help your community thrive.
3. We'll provide mentoring and support for executives, board members and leaders of your organization.
4. We'll analyze and support ways for your community to make stronger, lasting connections.
We use research, relevance, and the creative arts to help students market positive messaging that shares motivations for communities to dare to dream big. We collaborate with you to invest the time and talent to surpass bold expectations that overflow with connection and purpose.
