Go4GarretsSpace aims to “raise funds to support the Garrett’s Space wellness program and the establishment of a holistically focused residential center for young adults ages 18-28 struggling with depression and anxiety.”

Julie and Scott Halpert founded Garrett’s Space in 2017 after they lost their son Garrett to suicide at the age of 23. The nonprofit’s Wellness Programming offers support to young adults through weekly virtual support group meetings and movement, breathing and mindfulness activities.

“Garrett’s Space is all about connections so we’re thrilled that, after three years, we can gather in person to celebrate the strides that Garrett’s Space has made and showcase the value we’ll bring to the community with our residential center,” said Garrett’s Space co-founder Julie Halpert. “We’re looking forward to hosting both an inspirational and entertaining event.”

Added Scott, “Young adults are struggling now more than ever. And our Wellness Programming is already making a difference in the lives of our participants. There’s never been a greater need for our support option.”
