I'm Locker Room Speakers Founder Tim Claiborne. I'm an advocate for the neurodivergent and those with mental health challenges. I've been battling complex brain health issues since I was a young kid that have greatly impacted my life. I often wonder how life could've been different if got the help I needed as a kid. The Child Mind Institute is doing incredible work in the areas of care, education, and science related to children's mental health.  I’m happy that other kids have a chance to get the help they need and do better in life than I did. Every kid deserves the best possible opportunity to win in life. I'll be donating a portion of all revenue to the Child Mind Institute through the end of 2026. I encourage everyone to learn more about the important work they are doing and consider supporting the mission. It could change the life of a child you care about.

The athlete community stands out when it comes to leading on issues of mental health. Many of our speakers share their experiences with mental health challenges, and we're seeking to better educate coaches, teachers, and parents on how they can supports kid with mental health challenges.
