Teens. Friends and family. Mothers and fathers. Brothers and sisters. We are . . . a community of the friends, families and loved ones of teens lost to suicide. In the summer of 2016 our small town of Taos, New Mexico experienced a cluster of teen suicides that rocked our way of life. Shocked and grieving, we’ve scrambled to find answers that eventually came from the girl who sits beside me in Language Arts. “If you see something, say something”. A simple action to impact a serious issue. We are . . . teens working to save the lives of our friends and yours. Join us. #SEESomethingSAYSomething
