Founder & Executive Director
Our Minds Matter
Washington, District of Columbia
Lauren Anderson is executive director of Our Minds Matter (formerly the Josh Anderson Foundation), a Washington, D.C.-based non-profit organization working toward the day when no teen dies by suicide. She co-founded the organization with her parents in 2012 following the death of her youngest brother, Josh, by suicide at the age of 17. Her greatest accomplishment to date is seeing the impact of the Our Minds Matter program – a student-led, upstream suicide prevention program that is now in over 130 schools nationwide. Anderson’s work has been featured in print and broadcast news, from The Washington Post to the TODAY SHOW to Good Housekeeping Magazine and Deepak Chopra’s One World news show.
