What Life That Counts does

Mission

Everything we do Life That Counts is to help adolescent youth make better decisions for more healthy outcomes. We accomplish this by providing evidenced based education in schools to support social emotional learning, healthy relationships education, coping skill building, and s

As stated on its FY2021 Form 990.

Program

Ramp - 2020 highlights include having increased and expanded services virtually into alabama, indiana, illinois, and montana schools. Our staff delivered over 1000 hours of social emotional learning support to students both online and in-person. This resulted in a significant increase at post assessment in coping mechanisms, commitment to future self, and increase in attitudes towards healthy relationships. Our staff were present to help teens cope who were contemplating suicide and self harm. Our staff also assisted with ensuring the safety and nutritional needs of some youth.

Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
