Skye's The Limit! Foundation Inc
VISION and MISSION: SKYE'S THE LIMIT FOUNDATION is a 501c3 Public Charity DEDICATED TO ADDRESSING THE URGENT NEED FOR COMPASSION AND HUMAN CONNECTION TO COUNTER THE SOCIAL ISOLATION THAT CAN CONTRIBUTE TO SUBSTANCE USE AND SUICIDE. OUR VISION IS TO SEE A RESILIENT WORLD WHERE WE THRIVE TOGETHER. The Mission of Skye's the Limit! Foundation is to prevent trauma-related loss by substance overdose and suicide by building resiliency and empowering youth, families, and communities through advocacy, trauma education, peer support, and art- & nature-based intervention strategies. We work to build a trauma-informed community that supports and empowers those impacted by trauma. We provide referrals for therapeutic services and resources for help. Skye’s the Limit was founded in light of the trauma-related overdose of 19-year-old Skye Gina Ratcliffe Pilato on September 30, 2014. After two suicide attempts, Skye resorted to drugs to numb the pain she was feeling in isolation. In her honor, Skye’s the Limit now educates the community on trauma, harm reduction, and self-care and works to provide an environment for youth to speak out, express themselves, and ask for help.
