A MyMenta Movement

Take Our Kids Back™

Rebuilding connection, before crisis.

Somewhere between school pickup and bedtime, between practice and homework, distance grows — quietly, without anyone deciding it should. This campaign is a call back to the parents, teachers, coaches, pastors, and neighbors who already have what young people need most:

someone paying attention.

Why This Campaign Exists

The distance is closeable

Mental health struggles in young people rarely start as emergencies — they start as small, quiet signals that go unnoticed because the adults around them are stretched thin, unsure what to look for, or unintentionally out of reach. The data makes the urgency plain.

50%

of mental health conditions begin by age 14

75%

emerge by age 24, often before anyone steps in

2nd

leading cause of death for ages 10–34 is suicide

That's exactly why MyMenta focuses on ages 14–24 — the precise window where intervention has the best chance of catching a struggle before it becomes a crisis.

Three Ways In

Show up where you are

For Parents

Start at home

Download our free conversation guides, join a Parent Circle cohort, or book a one-on-one Clarity Session to name what you're noticing and get a real next step.

For Schools & Organizations

Equip your team

Train your staff, coaches, or ministry leaders in the CSAC framework so the adults already around young people know what to look for and what to do next.

For Community Members

Spread the word

Share this campaign, follow @mymenta, and help normalize the conversation in your own circle. Sometimes, that's the first step to make a young person feel seen, heard and loved.
