For what seems to have been in the works for almost a year now, we proudly present our first episode of the Strengthening Lives With Love Podcast! In this episode, 2 of our Founders, William York (Dad) and Josh Chretien sit down to talk about exactly who we are, why we are here making an impact and how you can get involved to help us truly make a difference in the world of Suicide Prevention and Awareness.
The Joshua York Legacy Foundation was founded to raise awareness on Mental Health and prevention of Suicide through outreach, education and improving mental healthcare accessibility. Our focus is high risk groups including: LGBTQ+, students, veterans and more.
We are “Strengthening Lives With Love” and encourage all to “Connect” with each other; “Recognize” the behavioral signs; and to “Act” before tragedy occurs.

I don’t have anyone close that has passed away but I myself have suffered from mental health…I first tried to commit suicide when I was 11 years old and countless times since. Its a subject that is hardly recognized and I’m in awe that this organization exist. When your at point that suicide is the only answer, well, this is also when your looking for any sign to stay alive. The idea of finding a rock with some encouragement wrote on it is perfect… Not to small to be overlooked and not to extravagant to be picked apart by a manic mind. Im inspired by everyone of you guys and blessed to have crossed paths. God Bless and please don’t forget us.
