Emma's Bio:

Emma Benoit became extremely passionate about suicide prevention after surviving a suicide attempt in 2017, the summer before her senior year in high school. Her attempt resulted in a spinal cord injury that left her paralyzed but helped her find faith and purpose; and propelled her on a mission to use her painful experience and miraculous recovery to help others.

In early 2018, Emma began working on a documentary film called My Ascension, that chronicles her recovery journey and advocacy work, while addressing the youth suicide epidemic.
