About Us

SPAM stands for student-led pioneers for awareness of mental health. We are an unregistered non-profit (while we are accepting donations, we have yet to be 501(c)(3) status. Our platform is based on mental health and awareness. We write and publish articles containing insightful information on the world of mental health. We also answer questions and give advice on related issues.  

Growing up in the American suburbs puts you into a mindset where you are given a perfect life to do your best and make yourself successful. When experiencing negativity, it didn't seem probable that it should occur. After being given everything, it didn't seem like we needed to express this negativity. That is the problem. To dismiss feelings of depression, anxiety, etc., just because your current situation is tolerable is what we're trying to fight. Especially being high school students in America, when everything you do determines your future. Our goal is to help the world figure out that mental health and the state of your mind matters, rather than sleeping on such an essential piece of our lives.
