We are focusing on the healing value of connecting in safe ways, prioritizing mental health and acknowledging that it’s okay to not be okay through presentations/discussions, personal stories, videos, digital toolkits, social media engagements and events. By hearing/reading about lived experience, we aim to make people feel less alone in their mental health journeys and increase awareness about mental illness.
Let's Talk about it!
Now more than ever, the mental health community is coming together to show that no one is ever really alone.
1 in 5 U.S. adults experience a mental health condition each year, and 17% of youth aged 6-17 experience a mental health condition.
Mental illness affects: • 15% of Asian adults • 16% of Black adults • 17% of Latinx adults • 37% of LGBTQ+ adults. None of us are alone.
If you ever feel alone because of your mental illness, the NAMI community is here for you. Sharing your story is not only helpful for your own mental health journey, it’s also a great way to let others know they are Not Alone. Stigma and discrimination have caused so many of us to suffer. This Mental Health Month, let’s break down stigma so no one struggles in silence. It’s time to end the silence around mental health.
