HR 32 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Hope Squad; commend and recognize the advisors and student members for their laudable work.

This resolution (HR 32) formally honors the student-led Hope Squad programs in 14 middle and high schools across Jackson County, Mississippi. It recognizes 203 student members and their advisors for implementing peer-to-peer suicide prevention initiatives using the QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) method, fostering mental wellness through activities like "Hope Chains" and "Cultivating Calmness" events. The resolution specifically commends the program's community partnerships (including Singing River Health Foundation and local businesses) and its evidence-based approach to addressing teen mental health challenges. As a symbolic gesture - not a law - it does not create new programs or funding but publicly acknowledges existing efforts to build inclusive school environments.
