2025 Sources Showcase Nominations are OPEN!!!
Join us virtually for our 2025 Sources Showcase on May 22nd from 4pm to 5pm!
The Sources Showcase celebrates Oregon students and adults working to create belonging and connection in their schools and communities, either through Sources of Strength programming or other youth-led suicide prevention efforts. They used their words, art, music, influence, activities and collective power to be agents of change, connectors to help and spread messages of hope, help and strength across Oregon. They have demonstrated the power that tapping into strengths can have on individuals and entire communities.
Nominees are chosen based on submissions that showed how they are:
Agents of change: how they use their voice, art, words, music, and/or time to advance belonging, connection, and equity in their school or community.
Connectors to help: how they elevate positive opportunities for their peers, normalized help-seeking, and work to break down stigma and codes of silence so often connected to seeking mental health support.
Rooted in hope, help and strength: how they embody strengths-based and inclusive practices.
