OUR MISSION
We are dedicated to raising awareness and promoting conversations in our communities around mental illness, suicide prevention, wellness, and resiliency. We believe that everyone plays a role in supporting and encouraging these conversations to make it easier for others to reach out and ask for help.
OUR STORY
Norah loved beautiful stones and crystals. She collected them, wore them as bracelets and necklaces, and kept notes on the healing properties of her favorite stones.
After losing Norah to suicide, creating these bracelets began as a way to remember and feel connected to her.
Each bracelet is made using Norah’s favorite stones, and each one contains an ‘N’ bead to remember her by.
The process of making and sharing Norah Beads bracelets has sparked conversations in our community about mental illness, suicide prevention, wellness, and resiliency. We hope that these conversations will be a path toward breaking the silence and ending the stigma around mental illness.
We hope that these conversations will make it easier for others to reach out and ask for help.
We hope that each bracelet will be a reminder to be kind to yourselves and each other, to spread love and hope, to keep going, and to know that even in the darkest times, there are people who wish nothing more than to help you find your way back into the light.
