Hope 4 Utah

Our Story

Hope4Utah was founded in the 1990s by Dr. Greg Hudnall, a high school principal, in response to a heartbreaking series of youth suicides in Provo, Utah. Determined to make a difference, Dr. Hudnall established the Hope Task Force, uniting community stakeholders to promote mental health awareness and suicide prevention. The first Hope Squad was launched at Timpview High School, training students to recognize warning signs of suicide and guide their peers to seek help. This initiative has expanded across the Provo City School District, fostering a culture of support and vigilance.

Impact

Hope4Utah's efforts have led to a remarkable achievement: youth suicides in the Provo City School District dropped to zero for nine consecutive years following the implementation of the Hope Squad program.
