The Center gave Barb a platform to reach people who needed support and to make a positive difference in the community. She wanted to give people who were impacted by suicide a safe place to talk. Once the Center was established\, Barb brought in many creative ideas to build awareness and to support people while also raising funds to keep the Center operational. In 2010\, she created the first walk to raise awareness of suicide with 700+ people now an annual event! She established a recovery center in Green Bay\, Wisconsin\, and developed a framework to use the video game community to prevent suicide. Being fully immersed in the area of suicide advocacy\, she identified a need for a unique support approach which had potential to significantly reduce the number of suicides she created and launched the HOPELINE text support line in 2014. Today\, HOPELINE is a highly utilized support line with over 2600 volunteer responders.\n\n\n\nTrauma and mental health are areas that continually change\, which is why Barb prioritizes continuous learning. She holds multiple undergrad and masters degrees in areas such as Human Development\, Psychology and Mental Health Counseling. She also has 70+ certificates such as Critical Incident Stress Management and National Office for Victim Advocacy certificates\, is a certified Brainspotting Practitioner\, certified Coach\, and certified Kinesiology Practitioner. Her 20+ year career allows her to bring a wealth of practical experiences and skills to the world. Early on\, as a corporate trainer and teacher\, her ability to reach people in an engaging way became clear. Her career continued to evolve as she became the Executive Director for the Victim Crisis Response Team for the Department of Justice in Central Wisconsin. Barbs involvement in the Victim Crisis Response team helped her to see a significant need for suicide awareness in her community. In 2020 she became a Master Resilience Trainer through the FBI Academy and trains numerous first responders on being the best emotionally\, physically\, spiritually\, and mentally.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHaley Tenpas (emcee): WHBY radio host\n\n \nHayley Tenpas is the host of Focus Fox Valley on WHBY radio.

The show delivers informative\, fun\, and community-minded conversations emphasizing the people and organizations that help the Fox Valley thrive.\n\n\n\nHayley was recently awarded the 2019 Wisconsin Broadcasters Association's Best Online Personality and was also the winner of the 2021 Wisconsin Technical College District Boards Association Media Award for her Focus on Careers series. The Hortonville alum is married to her high school sweetheart Brian and they're the proud parents of Callen (4) and Baker (1).
