DMAX Foundation, a Philadelphia area nonprofit organization, was founded in 2013 by Lee and Laurie Maxwell of Bryn Mawr, PA in memory of their son Dan Maxwell, who took his life at age 18. DMAX Foundation is addressing a significant unmet need on college campuses where students suffering from mental or emotional challenges can’t or don’t seek the help they need it because of stigma, overcrowding, and under-resourced counseling services. This can and too often does lead to tragic results. The foundation has developed an innovative solution with a rigorous, replicable model for student-led, mental health-focused social clubs, called DMAX Clubs, that encourage college students to connect with each other and have “Conversations That Matter” about how they are doing, how their friends are doing and how they can help each other.
