Our Focus

Trusted Sources is the only proactive mental health group where the youth are stake-holders in their own recovery and outcome. It’s also the only network where trustworthy mental health resources are vetted and filtered for adults who are seeking help for youth.

Our Vision

To host events, trainings, seminars, and workshops within both faith-based and secular communities. Our goal is to be a resource in the community when it comes to current teen mental health issues and solutions. We also want to be the only proactive mental health group that encourages the youth to be stakeholders in their own recovery and outcome.
To build an online portal that vets trustworthy, local, mental health resources. Our goal is for parents, students, or adult workers (like teachers, school counselors, student pastors, or foster care workers) to be able to search for professionals and programs nearby and add additional filters like time and insurance availability, cost, values and beliefs, area of expertise, etc.
