The BMS Project

Mission Statement

The BMS Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to assist amateur sports advocates to create and maintain positive, safe competitive environments and experiences for athletes and competitors of all ages and their families; as well as to promote mental health awareness and contribute to suicide prevention.

To accomplish our mission, we work with athletes, sports advocates, for profit and nonprofit partners and affiliates to provide for the safety and well-being of athletes.  We define “sports advocates” as parents, coaches, mentors, officials and school counselors.
