A UNC-Chapel Hill alumna, Anne Moss currently lives in Richmond, VA. Her surviving son is a filmmaker in LA.
The presentation was a very personal and engaging approach to a difficult subject…. it helped me understand how others might be feeling as well as how to identify and approach the topic with others. I also found the material extremely helpful as a parent.

What is the difference between Anne Moss and other speakers on mental health and suicide?
AnneMoss has a rare combination of lived experience and expertise. Plus the passion that goes with having lost a son to suicide.
Her son Charles lived with depression and anxiety and ultimately became addicted to heroin and took his life in 2015. While she has been speaking and training on the topic of youth mental health since 2010, she didn’t speak on suicide until she spoke with thousands of those who struggled with thoughts of suicide or had past attempts and had taken hundreds of hours of training. She has practical examples and effective solutions that can be implemented right away, and her audiences always watch with rapt attention. Her training is listed on this page.

AnneMoss and her team pride themselves on being authentic and understanding that we are serving you and your audience. That means answering your query as fast as possible and being responsive. AnneMoss isn’t some prima donna who lives in an ice castle on a private island but a mom who has lived through devastation and has found that speaking, training and consulting have helped her heal. She wants to help your audience with healing strategies and finding hope.
Does Anne Moss address topics other than suicide?
Yes. She speaks on mental health, coping strategies (DBT skills), and preventing people and youth from getting to crisis. She talks about anxiety, depression, addiction, substance misuse, self-harm, grief, and mental health stigma.
Her goal is to always deliver a message of hope and healing. As someone who owned a digital marketing company for 7 years, she also has a lot of expertise in digital media including social media and search engines (google).
I just want to say that you are a beautiful soul and I feel so blessed to have heard you speak today. Thank you for sharing your story and your knowledge!

In Memory of Charles Aubrey Rogers, 1995-2015
The funniest, most popular kid in high school, Charles Aubrey Rogers, suffered from addiction and depression and died by suicide at age 20. All Anne Moss does is in memory of her younger son, Charles.
What are people saying about AnneMoss?
AnneMoss Rogers is probably the most resilient person I know. She has managed to turn grief into action and is a suicide prevention champion. I had the pleasure of presenting with her at the Pediatric Academic Societies conference and her part was absolutely the best. She received a standing ovation… I have been to this conference for two decades and I have never seen any speaker receive a standing ovation.

Good luck dozing off or pseudo-listening to AnneMoss, as she will grab you “right in the feels “ as the expression goes. Even officers who’d been up all night couldn’t avert their focus to her dynamic ability to connect. We all learned so much from her, and she puts it all on the line. If you want a keynote speaker or someone to connect with you on a visceral level, Mrs. Anne Moss Rogers is who you want.
