Meet the Founder
Hi I'm Shelley, Founder of Tal-KET-Out
I created Tal-KET-Out because I believe young people need somewhere they can talk openly, honestly and without fear of judgement.
Sometimes the pressures young people face can feel overwhelming. Tal-KET-Out is about creating a safe space where they can feel heard, build confidence, understand their choices and know that asking for support is okay.
My aim is simple: to reach young people early, start conversations that matter and help prevent problems from becoming crises.
Real talk. No judgement. Your pen. Your story. Your life. Your choice.
