What is TWAP?

TWAP — The Whole Athlete Project — is a student-led initiative dedicated to addressing mental health stigma in school athletic systems. We believe that being a great athlete starts with being a healthy person, and that no student should feel alone in their mental health journey.

Through student-led advisory chapters, we bring together athletes, coaches, and schools to create real, lasting change — from the inside out.

Our Mission

"Our mission is to amplify student-athlete voices by addressing mental health stigma and improving access to mental health resources within school athletic systems. Through student-led advisory chapters, we empower athletes to identify challenges, propose solutions, and advocate for healthier and more supportive sports environments."
