Jade Chamness, founder of Break Through the Static, talks about the Jan. 28 bonfire hosted in Palo Alto and the organization’s aspirations to create a peer-to-peer support network for local teens who have experienced a loss to suicide and mental health issues.

The bonfire was held from 8 to 10 p.m. at the Boy Scouts’ outdoor fire pit at Lucie Stern Community Center. For more information about Break Through the Static, visit breakthroughthestatic.org.
