Jazmine Wildcat (she/her) is a 21-year-old enrolled member of the Northern Arapaho tribe from the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. As someone living with depression and anxiety, Jazmine’s passion for mental health advocacy is deeply personal. Her journey began through her own struggles, the loss of too many friends, mental health challenges, and the glaring lack of resources in her rural community.

Jazmine is particularly dedicated to educating others about intergenerational trauma and promoting alternative coping mechanisms like traditional practices, volunteering, and activism. She strives to reduce stigma and spark meaningful conversations about mental health, especially in Indigenous and underserved communities.

In her free time, Jazmine enjoys watching sports of all kinds, beading, and spending time with her loved ones. With her lived experiences and commitment to change, Jazmine brings a unique and compassionate perspective to her advocacy, aiming to create inclusive solutions that uplift mental well-being for all.
