After We Play (AWP) is a human development platform built through the lens of sport. We help athletes navigate the real challenges of being an athlete — pressure, identity, anxiety, and life beyond the game — so they can build sustainable success both during and after their athletic careers.

AWP serves athletes of all levels and their support networks:

• Current athletes — youth, high school, and collegiate
• Transitioning or retired athletes navigating life after sport
• Parents and families who want to understand and support their athletes
• Coaches and club administrators who want better tools for athlete wellbeing
• Organizations and clubs looking for a structured mental wellness platform for their athletes

Most wellness platforms offer generic content. AWP is built specifically for the athletic experience — the pressure, the identity, the grief when a season ends, the question of who you are without the sport. Everything we create speaks directly to that reality. AWP also integrates peer support, clinical access (through Mindflow), and a structured curriculum — not just content to consume but a community to belong to.

No. AWP is a personal development and peer support platform — not a licensed clinical service. We are not a replacement for therapy, medication, or professional mental health treatment. AWP is designed to complement an athlete's overall wellbeing. When clinical support is needed, we provide a direct pathway to Mindflow — our licensed clinical partner.

AWP has two core products that work together:

• The Invisible Game: AWP's self-paced online curriculum. Covers pressure, anxiety, identity, resilience, and purpose. Created by AWP's Clinical Director.
• The Huddle: AWP's private digital community. Daily programs, peer support, weekly speakers, clinical access, and Private Locker Rooms. The Huddle is the ongoing community that members join after completing The Invisible Game.

AWP was founded by Scott Roussell. The clinical curriculum was created by AWP's Clinical Director. Both can be found at afterweplay.com/about.

AWP is a fully digital platform available on desktop, tablet, and mobile anywhere with an internet connection. It is delivered through Go High Level (GHL) — no additional app download required for core features.

The Invisible Game is AWP's foundational curriculum — a self-paced online program that helps athletes understand and manage the internal challenges of sport that no one talks about in practice. It covers:

• Pressure and how it lives in the body and mind
• Anxiety — what it is and how to work with it
• Identity separate from sport and performance
• Fear of failure and processing shame
• Emotional resilience and bouncing back
• Purpose and direction beyond the game

The curriculum is delivered digitally through short video lessons, guided reflections, written exercises, and frameworks. It is fully self-paced — athletes move through the material on their own schedule. Group discussion options are available for clubs and teams who complete it together.

The core program can be completed in 6–12 weeks depending on the athlete's pace. Many athletes revisit sections regularly as their circumstances change — it is designed to be a living resource, not a one-time course.

No. The Invisible Game is designed for all athletes — whether they are struggling, performing at a high level, or preparing for a major transition like graduating, retiring, or changing teams. The internal game matters at every stage of an athletic career.

Yes. Many clubs and teams go through The Invisible Game as a group experience. AWP provides facilitation guidance for coaches and club administrators who want to lead their athletes through the curriculum together. Contact us at afterweplay.com/contact-us to discuss group options.

The Invisible Game was created by AWP's Clinical Director, Lori Freeman. Lori brings clinical expertise and a deep understanding of athlete psychology to every aspect of the curriculum.

The Huddle is AWP's private digital community — the ongoing support ecosystem that members access after joining AWP. It is built for one purpose: to give athletes a space to be understood, not evaluated. The Huddle is where athletes come when they're ready to talk about the real game — the one they play inside.

The Huddle includes eight integrated programs:

• The Inner Circle: Peer-to-peer support community with daily opening prompts and weekly small groups
• First Whistle: A daily opening question posted at 6 AM that opens the community floor
• The Training Table: Daily athlete-specific nutrition content posted at 7:30 AM
• The Still Point: Guided meditation sessions by AWP's Clinical Director, released every morning at 7 AM
• Athletes Speak: Weekly recorded speaker series — former athletes, coaches, and loved ones — released every Thursday at 7 PM ET
• The Playbook: Expanded curriculum library of tools, frameworks, and deeper teachings built from The Invisible Game. New content added regularly by AWP's clinical team
• Mindflow Clinical Support: Licensed clinicians accessible directly through The Huddle for members who need professional support
• The Drive Home: A private peer support community built exclusively for sport parents, with small group sessions, daily questions, a 38-piece resource library, monthly Parent Voices speakers, and Mindflow clinical access

No. The Huddle is a private, members-only community — not a social media platform. There are no public feeds, no follower counts, no likes. It is a protected space where what is shared stays within the community.

Yes. The Huddle is actively moderated to maintain a safe, respectful, and supportive environment. All content is subject to community guidelines. Sensitive keyword monitoring is in place and routes to clinical support when needed. Under-18 members have additional moderation layers — see the Under-18 section for details.

The Huddle is built and delivered on Go High Level (GHL) — a professional community and course delivery platform. It is accessible via desktop and mobile browser. No separate app download is required, though a mobile-optimized experience is available.

Yes. The Huddle is mobile-accessible through your phone's browser. Simply navigate to your member portal link on any device.

No. You can engage as much or as little as you choose. You can read, watch, and listen without ever posting anything. The act of showing up and witnessing is itself a valuable part of The Huddle experience.

First Whistle is a daily opening question posted in The Inner Circle every morning at 6 AM. It is the first thing members see when they open The Huddle — one honest, thoughtful question designed to open the floor for real conversation before the day's performance begins.

First Whistle prompts rotate across seven themes — Performance & Pressure, Identity & Self-Worth, Relationships in Sport, Mental & Emotional Health, Recovery & Resilience, Transition & Change, and Joy & Celebration. Examples include:

• 'What are you carrying today that you haven't put down yet?'
• 'Name one great accomplishment from this week — no matter how small.'
• 'What do you wish your coach understood about you that they probably don't?'
• 'What does rest feel like right now — are you getting any?'

No. First Whistle opens the floor — it never demands a response. Some days you will want to share. Some days you will read others' responses and feel less alone. Both are equally valid ways to engage.

First Whistle posts daily at 6:00 AM in The Inner Circle community feed. Members can respond directly in the thread throughout the day.

Yes. The First Whistle calendar includes age-appropriate versions for all member tiers. Prompts flagged for adult audiences only are never served to under-18 members. The GHL automation ensures this routing is enforced automatically.

The Training Table is The Huddle's daily nutrition program — a practical, athlete-specific nutrition post delivered every morning at 7:30 AM. The name comes from a deep-rooted sport tradition: the training table is where athletes fuel together before the work begins. Every post is designed to be read in under 60 seconds and acted on the same day.

Every Training Table post follows a consistent four-part structure:

• Title: A specific, memorable headline
• Core Message: The one idea — what the athlete needs to understand
• Athlete Fact: One evidence-based finding, simply explained
• Call to Action: One specific, doable thing the athlete can do today

The Training Table follows a seven-day rotating theme calendar:

• Monday: Performance Fueling — eating to compete and optimize energy
• Tuesday: Recovery Nutrition — rebuilding muscle, reducing soreness
• Wednesday: Mental Clarity & Mood Foods — the gut-brain connection
• Thursday: Sleep & Rest — nutrition for recovery and sleep quality
• Friday: Weekend Prep — travel nutrition and pre-competition meals
• Saturday: Simple Wins — one easy, achievable daily habit
• Sunday: Week Ahead Planning — meal prep and goal-setting

Training Table content is developed in partnership with a Registered Dietitian (RD) who specializes in sports nutrition. All content is reviewed and clinically approved by the RD partner before publishing. Content is co-branded with the RD's credentials for clinical credibility.

Yes. All Training Table content is reviewed for age-appropriateness before publishing. Content is never weight-loss focused, never promotes restriction, and always uses performance and recovery framing. Any content touching on body composition or eating behavior receives an additional clinical review layer given AWP's under-18 membership.

The Training Table posts a daily prompt and welcomes responses in the community thread. For personalized nutrition advice, members are encouraged to consult a registered dietitian. AWP provides general athlete nutrition education — not individualized dietary counseling.

The Huddle's Still Point program is a library of guided sessions created and facilitated by AWP's Clinical Director. Sessions are released every morning at 7 AM through the GHL course platform — one session per day, available the moment members wake up. They are designed specifically for athletic emotional scenarios, not generic wellness.

Every session is written for the specific emotional reality of being an athlete. Instead of generic mindfulness, you get sessions like 'The Night Before — Resting Into Readiness' (pre-competition), 'The Replay Loop' (after a loss), 'Who Am I Without the Game?' (off-season identity), and 'The Machine Is Tired' (mid-season burnout). No other meditation platform speaks this language.

The 60 foundational sessions are organized into five series:

• Before the Game (Sessions 1–12): Pre-competition anxiety, pressure, focus, and channeling nerves
• After a Loss (Sessions 13–24): Processing failure, releasing shame, the replay loop
• Off-Season (Sessions 25–36): Identity beyond sport, rest without guilt, who you are without the game
• Mid-Season Grind (Sessions 37–48): Burnout prevention, staying present, managing expectations
• Transition (Sessions 49–60): Injury, being cut, retirement, rebuilding identity

Sessions range from 6 to 12 minutes depending on the series and scenario. They are designed to fit into a morning routine — long enough to create genuine impact, short enough to do before practice, school, or work.

No experience is required. Every session is fully guided — Lori walks you through each practice. Athletes who have never meditated before will find the sessions accessible. The format is audio-first, which many athletes prefer for meditation content.

A Layer 2 library of 60 additional sessions is being developed — the same five themes but with greater depth and more advanced techniques. Sport-specific meditation tracks (soccer, basketball, swimming, and more) are planned for Year 2. The library grows continuously as The Huddle scales.

Yes. All sessions are permanently available in The Huddle course library — you can replay any session at any time. The daily drip introduces one new session per day, but the entire library remains accessible.

Athletes Speak is The Huddle's weekly recorded speaker series. Every Thursday at 7 PM ET, a new episode releases featuring a real conversation about what sport actually costs — the pressure, the identity, the grief, and what comes next. No PR polish. No talking points. Just honest stories from people who have been where our members are.

Athletes Speak features three types of guests across a monthly rotation:

• The Athlete's Voice (3x/month): Former athletes — at any level — sharing their honest experience of sport and what came after
• The Coach's Perspective (1x/month): Coaches who speak honestly about what they got wrong, what they learned, and what they'd do differently
• The Ones Who Loved Them (quarterly): Parents and loved ones who lost an athlete — sharing what they saw, what they missed, and what they want young athletes to know

No. Athletes Speak is a recorded series, not a live broadcast. Each episode is recorded in advance and released every Thursday at 7:00 PM ET. A community discussion thread opens at the same time so members can engage together — creating a shared community moment even though the recording was made earlier.

Episodes are available in The Huddle course library. Every Thursday at 7 PM ET you will receive a notification, a community post, and an email with a direct link to that week's episode. You can also access all episodes directly from your member dashboard at any time.

Every episode is permanently archived in The Huddle course library. You can watch any episode at any time — there is no expiration. New members also have full access to all past episodes from day one.

Most episodes are appropriate for all member tiers. The quarterly Format 3 sessions — featuring parents and loved ones who lost an athlete — are available to Tier 2 (ages 16–17) members only, with a mandatory content warning and Mindflow clinical support link displayed before the episode plays. Format 3 episodes are never served to Tier 1 (ages 13–15) members.

Yes. If you know a former athlete, coach, or someone with a story that would serve The Huddle community, contact us at afterweplay.com/contact-us and tell us about them. We are always building the speaker pipeline.

The Inner Circle is the peer-to-peer support community at the heart of The Huddle. It is the space where athletes talk to each other — honestly, without performance, without judgment — about the real experience of being an athlete. It is modeled on the most effective peer connection model in existence: the power of shared experience in a trusted room. It is the first community of its kind in the athletic arena.

The Inner Circle has two layers. The open community is a space where any member can post about what they're experiencing — a struggle, a win, a question, a feeling. Small groups are cohorts of 8–10 athletes who meet weekly in a structured session, facilitated by a trained peer facilitator. Small groups are where deeper trust and connection build over time.

When you join The Huddle, you will receive an invitation to join a small group during your onboarding. Groups are formed based on life stage — active competitive athletes, athletes navigating transition or injury, and retired or post-sport athletes. Contact your community manager if you have questions about which group is right for you.

The Inner Circle has eight core rules:

• What is shared here, stays here — absolute confidentiality
• You speak from your own experience — not from advice
• No screenshots or sharing outside the group — ever
• You are anonymous if you choose to be — and that anonymity is honored
• Celebrate as loudly as you share the hard — wins belong here too
• You do not have to share — showing up and listening is enough
• This is not a competition — every struggle is valid regardless of sport or level
• When someone needs more than peer support can give, we point them to Mindflow

Yes. Members have the option to post anonymously within The Inner Circle. If you choose anonymity, no other member may attempt to identify you. Your choice to share anonymously is as valid and as brave as sharing with your name. Note: anonymous posting is not available for Tier 1 (ages 13–15) members.

Peer facilitators are athletes who are slightly further down the road — typically 2–4 years out of competitive sport — who have completed The Invisible Game curriculum and trained specifically to hold space in small group sessions. They are not therapists or coaches. Their role is to follow the session structure, witness without judgment, and point toward Mindflow when something exceeds peer support.

Every small group session follows a consistent four-phase structure:

• The Check-In (Phase 1): Every member answers one honest question — one word or one sentence. No performance.
• The Share (Phase 2): One or two members go deeper. The group listens without advice or crosstalk.
• The Response Round (Phase 3): Members respond from their own experience — never with advice.
• The Close (Phase 4): Every session closes with the same words: 'What was shared here stays here. What you brought here matters.'

Small groups also run in async format — a facilitated GHL thread that follows the same four-phase structure over a 72-hour window. Members who cannot attend live can fully participate through the async thread. Both formats are equally valid.

If something is shared that suggests a member may be in crisis — language about self-harm, feeling hopeless, or not wanting to be here — the peer facilitator is trained to acknowledge it compassionately and immediately direct the member to Mindflow clinical support. Facilitators are not therapists and do not attempt to manage crisis alone. The Mindflow pathway is always the next step.

Violation of The Inner Circle's confidentiality rule — sharing another member's words, story, or identity outside the group — results in immediate removal from The Inner Circle and potentially from The Huddle entirely. This is not a punishment. It is the protection that every other member's trust depends on.

Mindflow is AWP's licensed clinical partner — a mental health service providing access to licensed clinicians directly through The Huddle. Mindflow is available to all Huddle members when peer support or self-guided content isn't enough. It is not an emergency service — it is a normalized, stigma-free pathway to professional support integrated into your membership.

Access to Mindflow is included as part of The Huddle membership — meaning the pathway and intake process are built directly into the platform. Specific session fees, if any, are determined by Mindflow's service agreement. Contact AWP support or visit your member dashboard for current details on what is covered.

The Mindflow access link is visible in every channel of The Huddle — in the community sidebar, in course pages, and in your member dashboard. Simply click the link to begin Mindflow's intake process. You do not need a referral, a separate account, or a separate app.

Yes. Mindflow operates on a completely separate, HIPAA-compliant platform. Your clinical conversations with Mindflow clinicians are private and are never accessible to AWP staff. AWP knows only whether you have accessed Mindflow — not what was discussed.

Mindflow provides licensed clinical mental health support including:

• Individual therapy sessions with licensed clinicians
• Athlete-specific mental health assessments
• Crisis support and immediate care pathways
• Transition counseling for retirement and identity shifts
• Confidential, HIPAA-compliant sessions separate from community data

Peer support in The Inner Circle is powerful — and it has limits. Use Mindflow when something feels bigger than peer connection can hold. Signs it may be time to reach out to Mindflow include: persistent feelings of hopelessness or emptiness, thoughts of self-harm, anxiety or depression that interferes with daily life, processing trauma, or any situation where you feel you need a professional rather than a peer.

If you are in immediate crisis, please contact emergency services (911) or the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988) immediately. Mindflow provides clinical support but is not a 24/7 emergency service. For immediate crisis support, use 988 — it is free, confidential, and available 24 hours a day.

Yes. Mindflow's clinicians who serve AWP members are experienced in athlete-specific mental health challenges — performance anxiety, identity transition, career-ending injury, and the unique pressures of competitive sport. This is not generic therapy — it is clinically informed support that understands the athletic context.

A Private Locker Room is an exclusive sub-community within The Huddle reserved for a specific club, team, university, or organization. Athletes in a Locker Room have a private space with their own teammates — visible only to members of that club — while still having full access to the broader Huddle community and all eight programs.

The main Huddle community is shared by all members across all clubs and sports. A Private Locker Room is exclusively visible to the athletes, coaches, and staff of one specific organization. Posts in your Locker Room cannot be seen by athletes from other clubs. Think of it as your team's inner circle within the larger community.

Private Locker Rooms are included in club partnership agreements with AWP. When your club signs with AWP, a dedicated Locker Room is set up as part of your onboarding. Contact us at afterweplay.com/contact-us to discuss a club partnership.

Club administrators have elevated access within their Locker Room including:

• Pin important posts or announcements for all club members
• Send direct announcements to all athletes in the Locker Room
• Add or remove athletes from the Locker Room as roster changes occur
• View weekly engagement reports for their club's members
• Access a direct Mindflow escalation pathway for any member of concern

No. The Inner Circle's confidentiality rules apply inside Locker Rooms as well as the broader community. Coaches and parents who are club administrators cannot see Inner Circle small group session content. Locker Room posts are visible to club members — separate from the private small group environment.

Access to a club's Private Locker Room is tied to the club's membership agreement. If an athlete leaves the club, the club administrator removes them from the Locker Room. The athlete may retain access to the broader Huddle community depending on their individual membership terms.

Yes — in the main Huddle community and Inner Circle open spaces, athletes from all clubs interact together. Private Locker Room content is the only space that is club-exclusive. The broader community is multi-sport and multi-club by design.

Yes. AWP serves athletes as young as 13. A three-tier age architecture is in place to ensure all minor members receive age-appropriate experiences with the appropriate safeguards. Different access levels and protections apply to each age tier.

AWP uses three age tiers:

• Tier 1 — Junior Members (Ages 13–15): Maximum protection. Junior-only Inner Circle groups. Adult facilitators only. All posts reviewed before publishing. No anonymous posting. Verified parental consent required.
• Tier 2 — Youth Members (Ages 16–17): Full access with age-appropriate moderation. Youth-only Inner Circle groups. Parental consent required. Posts reviewed within 24 hours.
• Tier 3 — Adult Members (Ages 18+): Full access as designed. Standard Huddle experience.

When a member under 18 creates an account, their parent or guardian must complete a verified consent process before the account is activated. The parent receives an email explaining what The Huddle is, what data is collected, and their rights. Account access is not granted until consent is confirmed. Parents can revoke consent and request account deletion at any time.

Parents of minor members have access to a parent portal showing their child's account status, last active date, and whether they have accessed Mindflow. Parents cannot see the content of their child's Inner Circle posts or small group sessions — confidentiality is maintained even for parents, consistent with minor mental health privacy standards.

Yes. Every content type in The Huddle is age-flagged and routed appropriately. First Whistle prompts, Athletes Speak episodes, and meditation sessions that are not suitable for younger members are automatically excluded from Tier 1 and Tier 2 feeds. No adult-only content ever reaches minor members.

Yes. All Huddle members including minors have access to Mindflow. Mindflow has a dedicated minor intake pathway. In most cases, clinicians are required to notify a parent or guardian about a minor's treatment — your state's specific laws govern this. AWP and Mindflow follow all applicable legal requirements for minor clinical services.

Yes. All AWP staff and facilitators who work with minor members are trained in mandatory reporting. If a minor discloses abuse, neglect, or imminent danger to themselves or others, AWP is legally required to report this to the appropriate authorities. This is not optional and it is not a discretionary decision. The safety of our youngest members is non-negotiable.

All Tier 1 posts are reviewed before publishing. Tier 2 posts are reviewed within 24 hours. Keyword monitoring is active for all minor members. If a concerning post is identified, the community manager notifies AWP's Clinical Director immediately. The Mindflow minor pathway is activated and the member receives direct outreach.

Tier 1 (ages 13–15) members participate in junior-only Inner Circle groups with adult facilitators. Tier 2 (ages 16–17) members participate in youth-only groups. Full adult Inner Circle access, including peer-facilitated groups, is available at age 18.

AWP membership includes:

• Full access to The Invisible Game curriculum
• 12 months of access to The Huddle community
• All six Huddle programs — First Whistle, The Training Table, The Still Point, Athletes Speak, The Inner Circle, and Private Locker Room (for club members)
• Mindflow clinical support access pathway
• Mobile and desktop access on any device

Initial membership includes 12 months of full Huddle access. After the first year, members can continue their journey through a monthly subscription. Details on renewal are provided before your membership expires.

After your first 12 months, you have the option to continue with a monthly subscription to stay in The Huddle. Your course library access, small group connections, and community history remain intact. You will receive renewal communications before your membership expires.

Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time. Access continues through the end of your current billing period. To cancel, log in to your member dashboard or contact AWP support at afterweplay.com/contact-us.

Refund policies vary depending on how your membership was purchased — individual vs. club agreement. Please refer to the terms in your original agreement or contact AWP support for clarification.

You should receive an email invitation from your club or directly from AWP with a personalized link to activate your account. If you have not received it within 24 hours of your club's activation date, check your spam folder first. If it's not there, contact your club administrator or AWP support.

Access to your club's Private Locker Room ends when you leave the club's roster. Access to the broader Huddle community may continue depending on your membership terms. Contact AWP support to discuss your options.

AWP support is available through the following channels:

• Website: afterweplay.com/contact-us
• Email: Available through the contact form on the website
• In-platform: Use the Help or Contact button in your member dashboard
• Response time: Within 1 business day for standard requests

All Huddle members are expected to:

• Maintain absolute confidentiality — what is shared here, stays here
• Respond to others from personal experience, not with advice or judgment
• Never screenshot, share, or identify another member's words outside the community
• Honor the anonymity of any member who chooses it
• Celebrate wins as genuinely as they hold difficult things
• Treat every member's experience as valid regardless of sport, level, or age
• Point toward Mindflow when something exceeds what peer support can hold

Depending on the severity of the violation:

• Minor violations: a private message from the community manager and a warning
• Repeated violations: temporary suspension from The Inner Circle
• Confidentiality violations: immediate removal from The Inner Circle and potentially from The Huddle
• Content involving self-harm threats or abuse: immediate escalation to Mindflow and mandatory reporting if a minor is involved

AWP takes data privacy seriously. AWP collects only the information necessary to provide the platform — your name, email address, date of birth, and engagement data. AWP does not sell your data to third parties. AWP does not use your data for advertising. Please refer to the AWP Privacy Policy at afterweplay.com for full details.

No. Mindflow operates on a completely separate, HIPAA-compliant platform. Your clinical conversations are never shared with AWP. AWP knows only whether you have used the Mindflow access link — not anything discussed in clinical sessions.

AWP collects the minimum data necessary from minor members: name, date of birth, email address, and platform engagement data (which courses were accessed, completion rates). AWP does not collect location data beyond state, does not create behavioral profiles, and does not share any minor member data with advertisers or third parties. All minor member data is handled in accordance with COPPA requirements.

Yes. You can request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by contacting AWP support. Deletion is processed within 30 days. For minor members, a parent or guardian can request deletion through the parent portal or by contacting support.

You are in the right place. The Huddle exists exactly for this. The Inner Circle peer support, the meditation sessions, and First Whistle are all here to help you feel less alone. And when peer support isn't enough, Mindflow clinical support is available directly through your dashboard — licensed professionals who understand the athletic experience and are here when you need more than a community can give.

• You do not have to carry this alone
• Asking for support is not weakness — it is the exact thing we ask of every athlete in this community
• Mindflow is a direct path to professional support — available right now in your dashboard

If you are in immediate crisis, please contact emergency services or a crisis line right now. Do not wait.

If you see something in The Huddle that concerns you about another member's safety:

• Use the Report button on any post to flag it for the moderation team immediately
• Contact AWP support directly at afterweplay.com/contact-us and describe what you saw
• If you believe the person is in immediate danger, contact emergency services (911)
• Do not try to handle a crisis situation alone — AWP's team and Mindflow are here for this

Peer support in The Inner Circle is connection with others who understand the athletic experience. It is powerful, validating, and for most situations exactly what athletes need. Clinical support through Mindflow is professional mental health care provided by licensed clinicians. It is private, HIPAA-protected, and the appropriate step when what you're experiencing needs more than community can provide. Both exist in The Huddle because both are necessary — and they work together, not in competition.

Yes. AWP follows the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) Safe Messaging Guidelines for all content that addresses suicide, self-harm, or mental health crisis. This applies to Athletes Speak episodes, community moderation, facilitator training, and any staff communication with members. The welfare of our members — especially our youngest members — guides every content decision we make.

Please contact AWP support immediately at afterweplay.com/contact-us. Describe your concern and include your child's name and the email address associated with their account. AWP's team will respond within one business day for non-emergency concerns. If your child is in immediate danger, contact emergency services (911) or the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline first.
