Mental Health

KyleCares Foundation
KyleCares is sparking honest conversations about mental health among teens and young adults. By partnering with schools and families, the foundation helps create environments where seeking help is a sign of strength, not stigma. Every program and partnership moves us closer to a world where no student struggles in silence.
Happiness Project
Even in the NFL spotlight, where it can seem like players ‘have it all,’ Christian wants to show that being vulnerable and prioritizing mental wellness is a true sign of strength.
