About

The Yellow Tulip Project focuses on smashing the stigma that surrounds mental illness and building a community where people realize there is help and hope. When founder Julia Hansen was in middle school and high school she definitely felt alone in dealing with her own depression. It took the tragedy of losing her two best friends to suicide in 2015-2016 for her to find her voice and to speak out. She had an idea - to create a space for determined youth to eradicate stigma, build community, and inspire productive conversations about how to combat the rising rates of suicide.
