“My suicide attempt was a profoundly life-changing experience, as
you would expect, but maybe not for the reasons you’d expect. In
some counterintuitive way, it showed me the value of the life that
I’d spent years fantasizing about ending. That night before I left
the hospital, I made myself a promise to find a way to stop hurting
myself, no matter what it took.”

“While my childhood experiences were not ideal, to say the least, I
have been provided the opportunity to allow those experiences to
build me as a person and make me who I am today. I’ve created a
career in which I have the privilege to use my experiences to make
a profound impact on young people’s lives and the systems that
serve them.”
— Hayley Winterberg, Young Adult Leadership Award
