Elevation Society was built by young people who got tired of losing their friends to suicide. After years of collecting data and research Elevation formulated a strategy that focuses on early preventative measures. There are amazing nonprofits that are working to end suicide in various ways. However, the problem remains that people are not always aware of the resources available and what makes it worse is the negative stigma that prevents people from seeking help or even talking to others. Elevation Society wants to advocate and educate, while also working to stop the issue at the root.
