Complete this brief survey:

OR submit a short essay using the questions below as prompts. 

OR submit a short recorded audio or video clip telling your story. (For video, your face and identifying details will be blurred). Stories will be transcribed into written format. 

We want you to share your story — your REAL story of going through something hard —  and then share what helped you get through it. 

​

  1. WRITE ABOUT ONE HARD THING IN YOUR LIFE, PAST OR PRESENT.
     

  2. DID OTHERS KNOW ABOUT YOUR STORY OR WERE YOU ALONE? Describe details of your life. Did others help you? How? 
     

  3. HOW DID YOU HELP YOURSELF GET THROUGH YOUR HARD THING? What did you learn about yourself? How did you survive and thrive? 
     

  4. YOUR ADVICE. In one word, or a few sentences, what can you say to another teen that may help them get through their hard things?
