1616 isn’t just a hockey program. It’s a movement to equip the next generation with the tools they need to thrive on and off the ice.

At Ladd Foundation, we’ve seen firsthand how mental health challenges affect our kids. We’ve watched them struggle with pressure, confidence, and self-worth—and we’ve asked ourselves: What if we could help before the breaking point? That’s where 1616 comes in.
