BREAK THE STIGMA
Tommy Corral Memorial Foundation
The Tommy Corral Memorial Foundation (TCMF), a 501c3 non profit organization was established by the family of Tomas (Tommy) Corral III, a 19-year-old who lost his battle with depression to suicide. Since the Foundation was established, TCMF has been working in the community to increase education on the factors that lead to suicide, actively developing resources, and providing financial support to help those struggling with mental illness and suicidal thoughts. Our mission is to enhance mental health of individuals, their families, and their community through awareness, prevention, support, and education.
Restore & Resilience Retreat
Please join us for a three-day woman’s retreat created to empower survivors of trauma and grief, by strengthening resilience through enabling self-awareness, mindfulness, and the development of positive relationships.

# Impacted by Education Program & Workshops
Along with providing funds and opportunities for many community members to get certified in Mental Health First Aid in order to become prepared and equipped to handle a mental health crisis, the Foundation provides financial support for individuals needing counseling with no insurance.
The only feelings and awareness is to what is happening now.
Remember when someone is suicidal, sometimes they can only think about the right now. Next week and even tomorrow is too far into the future for them to think about.
