SAVE – Houston, Texas

Houston, TX, USA (952) 946-7998 savehoustontx@save.org

Information

Being very passionate about suicide awareness and mental health awareness, especially having dealt with mental health
issues herself, with her friends, and family, Lauren decided she wanted to make a direct impact. She searched for ways to
become involved, and in her search, she found the SAVE Charity. It was the perfect way to spread awareness about the
issues she and her peers were so passionate about. Thus, the Houston SAVE Charter was formed.
