About The Foundations
We’re dedicated to enhancing mental health skill-building within high school sports. Athletes, coaches, and athletic directors have expressed a clear need for this focus, citing the mental aspect as over 60% of an athlete’s game. However, limited time and resources often hinder the integration of comprehensive mental health training. That’s where we step in. Our programs are designed to provide the tools and support needed to embed mental health practices seamlessly into your athletic programs.
“To Coach you have to be an unofficial counselor.”
