Hope Twinkles is supporting two different facets of mental-health assistance: suicide prevention and counseling.
Tennessee Suicide Prevention Network
TSPN has a more-than-24-year history of advocating for suicide prevention and crisis intervention. They work with a number of different charities and active entities to provide education and help for anyone who is considering suicide, or who has a friend or family member in crisis.

The Transformation Center counseling.
As a faith-based counseling resource in the Chattanooga and Cleveland areas, The Transformation Center focuses on "teaching families and individuals the skills necessary to break negative behavior patterns and live healthy, functional lives." This large group of counselors provides mental/emotional support and guidance through very difficult times, bringing hope and possibility to hurting hearts. Our funds will provide up to 6 free sessions for young clients in distress.
