For those who know someone who is considering suicide, it’s important not to be afraid to talk to them about it. The first question to ask is, “Why? Why are you feeling this way?”
The UMTR2ME bracelets are a tool to start conversations and remind people that they do matter to someone.

The times that Jimm feels the closest to God are also the times when he feels the farthest from God.
Jimm Greer shares the story of how he started UMTR2ME. It came out of a dark moment of anger at God for not removing his mental health challenges.
