Ron Turner talks with Nikki Lytle about the current stigmas that surround the issue of mental health and the importance of starting a dialogue with those who suffer in silence. Parental discretion is advised as Lytle discusses the number two cause of death among 11 to 14 year olds is that of taking their own life, but it is preventable if we can recognize the signs and start a conversation to help guide them toward a path of recovery. Lytle shares her own personal struggle with mental health which put her on the path to bring the topic into the light. They can be contacted at (https://mental-health-1st.org/)
