The Justin Center for Transformation & Healing

No one walks alone.

Founded in memory of Justin, we offer free support after suicide loss, grief and wellness retreats, and suicide prevention training, so no one has to carry grief alone.

Our story

Why we exist

The Justin Center was founded in memory of Justin, whose life was lost to suicide at 17 years old.

We believe no one should have to navigate grief, trauma, or life's challenges alone.

From that belief grew a place for connection and healing: free support groups for people who have lost someone to suicide, retreats that make room to grieve and rest, and training that helps our community and our helpers prevent the next loss.
