A parent worried about a teen and unsure where to turn

A school that needs mental health programming for students
The Foundation's youth education presentations for third through 12th grade cover stress management, thinking traps, healthy boundaries, resilience, coping skills and suicide prevention. Peer Helpers PLUS adds a peer-to-peer suicide prevention and support program, and Thrive builds mental, social and emotional health into a school's academic culture.
Educators and parents who do not know the warning signs
Adult education programs teach educators, parents and professionals how to promote mental wellness, understand the teenage brain and recognize signs of depression and suicidal crisis in young people. The annual When Life Hands You Teenagers conference each September brings in speakers on adolescent mental health.
A mother carrying a child's mental health challenge alone
Coffee Days is a free monthly peer support group for moms and female caregivers of children and teens with mental health challenges, meeting in University Park, Highland Park and Richardson. A Spanish-language group, Charlas con un Cafecito, meets as well.

★★★★★a year agoI cannot say enough good things about Blanca Garcia and the Grant Halliburton Foundation. From the moment I first connected with Blanca, her warmth, professionalism, and deep compassion for the people she serves were unmistakable. She has an extraordinary ability to listen, understand, and guide — making every interaction feel personal and impactful. Her leadership in launching and directing the Here For Texas Mental Health Navigation Line is nothing short of life-changing for so many in North Texas. This is not just a service — it’s a lifeline.
