Suicide is the second leading cause of death for youth ages 12 to 18. As a high school principal, Dr. Gregory A. Hudnall was a first responder or consultant to dozens of student suicides and devoted himself to bringing hope to despondent teens. In 2004, with the help of his community and school district, Dr. Hudnall created the Hope Squad, a task force designed to help save lives by identifying the key struggles that can lead a person to suicide. As of 2018, Hope Squads can be found in 284 Utah schools and countless others across the country.
