What Is a School Chapter?
I’m Glad You Stayed Project School Chapters are perfect for high schools and colleges looking to start a mental health club on campus.
Our chapters bring the mission of the I’m Glad You Stayed Project to life by empowering students to promote mental health awareness, encourage hope, and create meaningful connections within their schools and communities.
Led by passionate student volunteers and supported by a faculty advisor, each chapter works to reduce stigma, foster a culture of kindness, and connect individuals with life-saving mental health resources. Through awareness campaigns, educational events, fundraising, and acts of service, chapters help create school communities where every student feels seen, supported, and reminded that they are not alone.
Whether you’re hosting a campus event, sharing encouraging messages, or simply starting important conversations, every action helps build a more compassionate and connected school—one where everyone knows they matter.
