The shirts are selling for $24.99 each, and all proceeds go to the Society for the Prevention of Teen Suicide (SPTS). In less than a week, more than 100 of the 500 total limited-edition shirts have been sold.
SPTS works to reduce the number of youth suicides and attempted suicides by offering training materials and programs for educators, helping them identify risk factors and properly intervene. Its website also has resources and information for parents and teens.
“.@SPTSUSA reduces the # of teen suicides through educational training programs. they’ve trained over 80k teachers to date. bravo,” Bell tweeted.
Bravo to you, Kristen! You can buy her “You Are Not Alone” T-shirt here.
