Description
"When I look back, knowing what I know now, there were signs..."
In this special episode of the Play Therapy Parenting Podcast, I had the privilege to interview Jason Reid, founder of Tell My Story (www.tellmystory.org) and Choose Life (www.chooselife.org). May is Mental Health Awareness month, and Jason, who lost his 14-year-old son to suicide, is determined to reach every parent and every family about the conversation they need to have with their kids.
Jason's mission has enlarged from informing parents about the signs of suicide in kids, to overall mental health awareness in kids and adults.
