About Hope For The Day

Mission

Hope For The Day® was created to honor all the friends and family members who had died by suicide. Founded in 2011, HFTD started in Chicago music venues doing outreach. Since those humble beginnings, it has evolved and grown to pioneer programming that it calls Proactive Prevention. Through outreach and mental health education, it strives to empower early intervention on mental health challenges and disrupt the highest risk factors for suicide.
