Story
I established Myles Ahead after losing my young son, Myles, to suicide in 2018. I felt compelled to leverage my expertise in creating system solutions benefiting the environment to address the endemic nature of the gaps in mental health support services in the community as well as in the schools that I witnessed firsthand in Myles' too short life.
Myles Ahead was formed with the belief that we can and must do better. We are dedicated to co-creating cohesive solutions that bridge gaps, working collaboratively with youth and industry partnerships to enhance and expand on best practices from the bottom up and across all systems that interact with youth.
Together we can change the tragically high youth suicide rates in Canada by helping to change the systems that support our young people.
Help us make a difference. Help us save lives.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Leslie Kulperger
Founder. Executive Director. Myles' mom.
Onwards! Upwards! Myles Ahead!
