Everyone Counts.
Help us end mental health stigmaWe believe that a socially-inclusive society benefits from valuing all members of society equally.
We work to improve our communities by eliminating barriers caused by discrimination and
poor treatment of people with lived experience.
A CAMPAIGN OF:
Empowerment
We help individuals build on their capacities, resiliencies, talents, abilities, and uniqueness, thereby decreasing internalized stigma.
Outreach
We change discriminatory practices by facilitating contact between people with mental health issues and the community.
Communications
We support culturally responsive storytelling that promotes positive discussion about taboos & gives voice to the silenced.
Make a Personal Pledge
I pledge to be mindful of stigmatizing language and negative stereotypes that may be harmful to people struggling with a mental health challenge.
