Aly Vredenburgh, a young expert in social innovation out of Carlsbad, California, is thrilled to announce the release of her first book, ‘Out of Focus.’ This groundbreaking work delves into the pressing issue of the mental health crisis faced by Generation Z, breaking down and identifying the root causes, advocating for prevention instead of band-aid like treatment from professionals.

Out of Focus’ goes beyond the surface and explores the factors and root causes that have contributed to the mental health crisis plaguing Gen-Z. Unlike many existing resources, this book prioritizes understanding the underlying issues rather than simply treating the symptoms through medications or therapy. Vredenburgh, a member of Gen-Z herself, is an expert in social innovation, gained during her Master of Arts program at The University of San Diego, which enables her to provide unique insights and actionable solutions to the crisis.

“If you’ve ever wondered why most people that belong to Gen-Z are depressed or anxious; it’s because statistically we are. That’s why I wrote this book.” – Aly Vredenburgh, Author of Out of Focus

Aly was inspired to write this intensive and comprehensive piece of literature after her best friend took her own life when they were in their early twenty’s. With the event creating a large impact on her life, Aly sought to identify and research why exactly Gen-Z is facing such a severe crisis, and how to tackle the root causes.

‘Out of Focus’ distinguishes itself from other books on mental health in Gen-Z by taking a comprehensive approach to understanding the crisis. The book draws upon thorough and meticulously researched sources, providing readers with a wealth of research-based information. By analyzing and identifying the root causes, Vredenburgh offers innovative solutions and policy recommendations that can lead to systemic change while hoping that it can reach a large enough audience to prevent suicide.

Aly Vredenburgh’s passion for social innovation and dedication to addressing the mental health crisis in Gen-Z make ‘Out of Focus’ a must-read for anyone looking to better understand the crisis, and how they can help. She is a steward of better mental health for all and is willing to appear on any podcasts or speak at any events to discuss the matter.

“I just want to create systemic change that is impactful and helpful to my generation” – Aly Vredenburgh, Author of Out Of Focus
