Themarshalleffect
Mission
The mission of #themarshalleffect is to promote awareness and provide support for individuals who are at risk of self-harm or suicide, or who are victims of partner abuse. We also wish to carry on Ryan’s legacy of helping others through activities that reflect his spirit as well as the challenges he faced in his own life. Specifically, we seek to achieve the following: 1) To work in collaboration with schools and mental health providers in an effort to identify youth and young adults who are at risk of self-harm or suicide and offer a sponsorship program to financially support long term access to appropriate care for those in financial need. 2) To offer a sponsorship program to provide effective mental health therapy for youth and young adults who are victims of partner abuse. 3) To provide volunteer opportunities to people of all ages in an effort to continue Ryan’s legacy of kindness. We believe volunteerism wins all around. It helps establish trust and respect between volunteers, offers rewards of knowing you are helping others, all while providing support to the community.
Vision
We at themarshalleffect believe the best way to PREVENT suicide is to directly fund mental health therapy for individuals at risk of suicide but who are unable to afford it. We learned of an evidence-based treatment called Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) that has been effective in the prevention of suicide and, in collaboration with licensed providers, provide up to a full year of therapy for individuals in need. themarshalleffect is committed to fighting the epidemic of suicide by funding this evidence-based therapy that will allow recipients to thrive, not merely survive.
Goals
- 1.We are seeking new funding sources to increase the number of clients we are able to support. These include corporate/business sponsorships and grants. We are working to increase the number of DBT therapists collaborating with our program and to expand the areas that we serve to include more of both the front range and outlying mountain towns of Colorado as well as rural communities to the east.
- 2.Due to a shortage of therapists, and the cost in time and money to be trained in DBT, mountain towns and smaller rural communities are historically underserved. themarshalleffect is searching for therapists who wish to have DBT training, and to apply for grants that serve rural communities to cover the costs involved in this training.
- 3.Suicide is the second leading cause of death for teens and young adults aged 10-34 years. themarshalleffect is working to establish connections to middle and high schools and is exploring the potential to partner with school counselors to identify students at risk and/or to provide education and outreach at school functions.
