The Taylor Hagen Memorial Foundation Programs
We are a non profit organization determined to build a community of courage, acceptance & support. By raising Mental Health Awareness and supporting Suicide Prevention Programs, we hope to create a movement to erase the negative stigmas and form a loving and supportive community; no one should feel alone with their struggles or suffering.
Youth ProgramsWith various partnerships we are able to offer some exciting youth programs aiming to provide kids with opportunities to receive counseling, group mental health activities, leadership and awareness camps, inspiring school speakers, mental health training and SO much more!

Bereaved Mother RetreatsFor our bereaved mothers, we host 3 retreats per year, creating a warm and safe space for mothers to bond and connect with each other, receive grief counseling and guidance, journaling tips, and some much-needed pampering.

Scholarship OpportunitiesWe’re thrilled to offer scholarships for teens in a variety of sports at several high schools in the Salt Lake City district, all in honor of some beloved angels of our board members.

Congratulations to Liam Meffert & Justice Fons!
Big thanks to Julie Jancius of Angels and Awakening for taking the time to interview our President and founder Cristie North. Here is what she had to say about the interview:
"Hello beautiful souls! My guest today is Cristie North - co-host of the ‘Pieces of a Woman’ podcast and president of a foundation that organizes bereavement retreats - but the story she shares today is about being a mother who lost a child to suicide. Cristie walks us through those devastating times, but she also talks about discovering ways to connect with her son - not only in his signs of love to her but in the ways he has helped her organization. This is a beautiful story of the bond a son continues to have with his mother." Angels and Awakening: A Mother’s Awakening After Experiencing Loss on Apple Podcasts

Grief Comfort Gift Baskets are available from THMF!
In our efforts to find ways to provide comfort and knowledge to those grieving the loss of a loved one, we came up with the idea of the Grief Comfort Baskets. If you or a loved one has suffered the loss of a family member, these gift baskets can be tailored to fit their specific circumstances by our own Angel Moms.
They contain our top choice grief comfort book, a journal, and an assorted collection of helpful brochures & guides to local resources available to each individual.
Also included are some handmade essential oil candles made by our very own Angel Moms.
To request a basket be sent to a friend or family member, please just send us an email to:
