- Kristen Pollin is CEO of NotMyKid, a nonprofit that deals with many of these issues employing a peer-to-peer education model.
- Robert Gruler is an attorney who lost a brother to drug abuse/suicide. He founded Eric’s House.
- Nate Rhoten is executive director and Kado Stewart is program director for One N Ten, a nonprofit organization serving LGBTQ youth.
