Hold Suicide Prevention Benefit Concert
Tacoma, Wash.-Inspired
by personal experiences, teens from United Way's Youth United
Leadership Council held a suicide prevention benefit concert
Friday, June 4th at 7 p.m. at the Liberty Theater in Puyallup.
Bands featured at the concert include Kane Hodder,
Run On Anything, Dramatics, Time To Fly and Sub-Motive. Admission
is $8 and proceeds will go to teen suicide prevention.
Each youth that attends the show will receive
a key tag with three 24-hour hotline numbers that can be used
for help with suicide issues, sexual assault, and drugs and
alcohol.
Youth United is a United Way of Pierce County
program that connects youth with their community through volunteer
efforts. Each year, the Youth Leadership Council chooses an
issue affecting teens and works to make an impact on that
issue.
