Mental Illness Awareness Week

Established by the U.S. Congress in 1990, Mental Illness Awareness Week aims to promote understanding and reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness. This week is an opportunity to educate the public about the realities of mental health conditions, advocate for equal care, and support those affected. We must create spaces where people feel safe to discuss their mental health and seek help without fear of judgment.

Equip your community with resources and promotional materials that encourage open conversations and foster a supportive environment. Together, we can break down barriers and offer the empathy and understanding that every person facing mental illness deserves.
