πŸ’œπŸˆ SJVYFL COMMUNITY MESSAGE πŸˆπŸ’œ 

 This season, the San Joaquin Valley Youth Football & Cheer League is proud to stand together and bring awareness to a growing and important issue β€” youth mental health and suicide prevention. Our athletes are more than players β€” they are children, teammates, leaders, and family. 

Behind every helmet and every bow is a young person who deserves to feel seen, supported, and heard. We believe in building not only strong athletes, but strong minds and safe spaces to open up and seek help. πŸ’ͺ🧠 

 If you or someone you know is struggling, please know help is available. You are not alone.
