North Richland Hills (ZIP codes 76180 & 76182) is home to roughly 70,000 residents across about 27,000-28,000 households, with thousands of families raising teens who are balancing school, social pressure, and the constant noise of digital life. In a community this busy, it’s easy for signs of stress, anxiety, or depression to go unnoticed until they start affecting grades, friendships, or family relationships.

​

Across the U.S., roughly 42% of teens report persistent sadness or hopelessness, and about one in five experience a diagnosable mental health condition each year.​ For a city the size of North Richland Hills, that’s thousands of teens quietly struggling with pressure to perform, fit in, or feel “enough.” Suicide has become the second leading cause of death for youth aged 10 to 24, and the CDC notes that emergency visits for suspected suicide attempts among teens increased by more than 30% from 2019 to 2021. At the same time, teens face rising academic expectations, online comparison, and reduced in-person connection—factors that increase stress and lower resilience.

​
