ABOUT SECOND CHANCE
We are glad you stopped by to read our website. Second Chance was created on October 21, 2013 in loving memory of my step sister, Candice Roundtree, who committed suicide in 2008. ​We are dedicated to educating the younger youth of America about suicide awareness with a mix of biblical principles. We do this by providing suicide information about the causes, warning signs, prevention, recovery and the latest statistics. While currently we do not have a hotline, The Second chance Team has partnered up with "The Hopeline" to help teens and young adults who are feeling suicidal to call and get immediate help. We feel that suicide is a serious issue that shouldn’t be overlooked. Thus being said, we want you know that there is hope and resources available and suicide should never be the answers to their problems.
