Welcome to The Fortitude Foundations

Our mission at the Fortitude Foundation is to spread awareness of Sports-Related Injury Depression (SRID). Many youth athletes will face some adversity during their sports experience. Most will recover, but some won't without help. We are an international, multi-sport community led by the mission to make those within a training environment aware of the potential for an athlete's thoughts to spiral out of control. Our resources help athletes develop their identity beyond sport, supporting their personal growth and preparing them for the mental recovery from injury. Our team of advisors can provide contact with a team of sports psychologists and professionals working on this mission, creating a safer, healthier environment for adolescent athletes. Through awareness and education, we are proactively helping to protect the person behind the injury, not just the athlete.
