Add Your Voice
We invite you to add your voice – from anywhere in the world – to create opportunity for people living with mental illness, as part of several exciting initiatives happening this month:
We are proud to be a founding partner of Mental Health Action Day on May 19 (MHAD), powered by MTV, now in its second year. Although more people than ever are comfortable discussing mental health, finding effective resources, such as Clubhouses, and knowing how to get help remain challenges. MHAD is an open-source movement of brands, organizations and cultural leaders driving awareness to action. This year's theme is Connection as people of all ages continue to seek out ways to cope with isolation stemming from the pandemic and mental health conditions.

Virtual Roundtable Discussion
In honor of Mental Health Action Day, we are pleased to present a Virtual Roundtable Discussion, "Our Stories: The Many Faces of Mental Illness."
Click here to watch the video -- and see how people from two seemingly different worlds met virtually — and found they were more similar than they’d believed. They are stories of hardship and hope, of struggles and successes. Mental illness can affect anyone, anywhere. These stories are OUR stories. Together, we can change the world of mental health.
