Naomi Girma is continuing to advocate for improved mental health services at every level of soccer.

Before the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia kicked off last summer, FOX Sports announced a groundbreaking multi-year partnership with Common Goal USA, in which FOX Sports became the first and only World Cup broadcaster to take Common Goal's 1% pledge and commit 1% of its World Cup coverage through 2026 to telling the story of soccer for social impact cross-platform. By the end of the tournament, FOX Sports' total commitment of airtime exceeded 6%.

' With Create the Space, Girma is hopeful that the support she received during her time of need can be taught to coaches and players at the youth level. 'Common Goal's big philosophy is ‘train the trainer,' which I think is really effective when talking about mental health,' Girma told FOX Sports.
