A graduate of Emory University with a bachelor of arts in history, Daniel J. Mannix joined Kemp & Associates in 1986. In his current role as vice president and chief operating officer, Daniel J. Mannix participates in the firm’s commitment charitable giving initiatives.
Kemp & Associates supports a number of Salt Lake City charitable organizations, including Hope4Utah, which operate the Hope Squad peer-to-peer suicide prevention program. Hope Squad members are trustworthy students nominated by their peers to undergo evidence-based training in suicide education and mental health. Then, the Hope Squad works together to create a safe, supportive school environment, raising awareness of mental health struggles and destigmatizing the negativity around asking for help.
The Hope Squad also teaches fellow students how to recognize suicide warning signs and respectfully report their concerns to the appropriate adults. Currently, more than 30,000 Hope Squad members are working to prevent youth suicide in 33 states and in Canada. For more information or to learn how to create a Hope Squad, visit hopesquad.com.
