In the wake of eight suicides in the Manasquan community, Friends Helping Friends (FSF) was founded by students wishing to put a stop to the epidemic taking their friends from them. FHF, working with the network of community stakeholders that has been established in response to the current episode of suicide contagion, created a Teen Center. The Teen Center is a place where teenagers can gather and, in addition to having a place of their own, also have counseling services available. The Foundation’s grant money was used to complete several goals that FHF set for the Teen Center, including obtaining computers to allow for tutoring and after school programs and sponsoring free counseling sessions.
