The Power With Grace

Please join Marianne Jacobson as we raise money for the JED Foundation to strengthen the emotional health of teens and young adults!

<h3>A﻿ note from our birthday host, Marianne Jacobson:</h3>Unfortunately, many of us have lost friends or loved ones to suicide. It is a tragic epidemic.It is especially heart breaking when it happens to young people. In the last 10 years suicide among 10-24 year olds has increased 57%. And, over 40,000 people die from suicide in US annually.About a year ago, we lost a close babygroup friend who my kids grew up with in SF. In the last 3 months 2 girls from Ross where I live, have taken their own lives, and then recently one of our dearest family friends attempted suicide…I feel overwhelmed and devastated by all of this thus I am compelled to do something. Dance brings me so much joy, and I want to be hopeful and help improve this terrible situation in some way, so, this year for my birthday, we will dance to raise funds for the Jed Foundation which offers education and prevention services to HS and college students at 9000 schools across America. Thanks for supporting this very serious cause with me.<h3>JED FOUNDATION MISSION</h3>
Our work shifts the culture and conversation around mental health by focusing on two components to change and save lives:
1. Strengthening the emotional health of teens and young adults so they can thrive today and tomorrow.
2. Preventing substance misuse, self-harm and suicide as a result of emotional distress.
We do this by equipping individuals, strengthening schools and mobilizing communities.
