Anne Moss Rogers

Anne Moss Rogers is a TEDx storyteller, the 2019 YWCA Pat Asch Fellow for social justice, NAMI Virginia board member, author of the book, Diary of a Broken Mind, and an Emotionally Naked® speaker who helps people foster a culture of connection to prevent suicide, reduce substance misuse, and find life after loss. She has been featured in the New York Times, was the first suicide loss survivor ever invited to speak at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and is a trainer for the four-hour evidence-based suicide prevention training called safeTALK. Despite her family's best efforts, Anne Moss's twenty-year-old son Charles died by suicide and she started a blog, EmotionallyNaked.com, and chronicled her family's tragedy in a newspaper article that went viral. After receiving a message from a young lady who wrote that one of her blog posts saved her life, Anne Moss sold her digital marketing business and followed her purpose of preventing suicide and reducing the stigma of addiction and mental illness.
