Review for BreakDown STL, Chesterfield, MO, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I went to a community presentation a few years ago and I was shocked to see all the stats on drug addiction, the suicide rate, and mental health issues just in America. After watching the presentation, I talked to some of the team members, and they were some of the nicest people I've ever met. After seeing the impact Breakdown had on the community it made me want to do that same thing to help spread awareness to other teens that they are not alone in their struggles and there is hope for them. So many teens don't feel safe enough to tell people about their struggles because they think they are the only ones dealing with whatever it is they are dealing with, Breakdown brings their issues to light so that they won't feel alone anymore. After being on the team for a year I can firmly say I have grown in my ability to see and properly deal with mental health issues.
