OUR MISSION

Crossroads is a nonprofit dedicated to decreasing mental health stigma one step at a time through student-made magazines and video productions.

 When you think of the word Crossroads, what comes to mind? The official definition by the dictionary is “an intersection of two or more roads.” As human beings, we are forced to choose a path in every aspect of life. Each emotion, action, and decision pushes us towards walking different types of roads with distinguishing consistencies. Traveling through rough textures on the journey of seeking leveled ground, Crossroads Initiative was created to be a meeting point for these differing roads where wanderers can take rest. Looking to de-stigmatize mental health and appreciate the unnoticed struggles of our society, Crossroads aims to be an inclusive community where students find strength in their hardships so that the bumps and roughness in their journeys only turn out to be valuable obstacles that they marvel as they slowly overcome them. Through the articles, films, reforms, and photos that we create, we hope that you are able to find your own beautiful, authentic, textured path as you view these embodiments of pain, growth, and empowerment.
