Funder backs student mental health

Local nonprofit 1N5 has been awarded $35,000.

The grant by the Charles H. Dater Foundation is to fund, in part, Building Resiliency in Youth (BRiY).

BRiY mental health education, suicide prevention and stigma reduction programming aligns with the Dater Foundation’s funding preference, which is to enrich young lives in the Greater Cincinnati region.

Through BRiY, 1N5 serves 197,000 students K-12 at 125 local schools and six universities with mental health education, suicide prevention and stigma reduction.

The Charles H. Dater Foundation makes grants to nonprofit organizations in the Greater Cincinnati area to carry out programs that benefit young people with a focus in the areas of arts/culture, education, healthcare, social services and other community needs.
