Hope Squad is a new program coming to the local DuBois Middle School that could literally save lives by empowering kids to talk to each other and identify the signs someone is considering suicide.

A few weeks ago, we spoke with Greg Hudnall, founder of Hope Squad. This week we’ll hear from the kids themselves. Four students on the Hope Squad National Board share their stories about how Hope Squad changed their lives and the lives of their friends.

Contact! airs Thursdays at 8:35am on Connect FM 96.7 & 99.7 FM and again on Sunny 106 Sunday mornings at 5am.
