Barb has stepped into a space where her work is unique and powerful, that being digital play spaces. That is where I came to know Barb. CFSA has worked for years to support gamers (among others) struggling with mental health issues. We love how Barb works with us involved in esports and gaming.

Barb's sincerity, effectiveness and creativity are just three of the things that make Center for Suicide Awareness stand out as exceptional in its ability to serve the community-- locally, statewide, regionally and even nationally. As the former Executive Director for the Victim Crisis Response Team for the Department of Justice in Central Wisconsin, an FBI Master Resilience Trainer and someone credentialed in dozens of trauma, mental health and crisis-specific methodologies, Barb brings a gravitas to her role that is not often seen. The impact of the organization is real and immediate-- equally impressive, is its ability to connect with people regardless of background, age or occupation. I've spent three decades working with vulnerable populations and in trauma-informed environments yet from my first conversation with Barb, I found myself learning new things. Remarkable founder, remarkable organization.
