Untreated mental illness is the most underrated health and social epidemic worldwide—and the numbers prove it. One in five adults will face a mental illness this year. Suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death among youth ages 10-24. Nearly 60% of mental illness goes untreated.
The solution? Early intervention—because the best way to solve a problem is to prevent it from happening. That’s what we’re supporting with every stride. Lace up, because people’s lives depend on it.
