Anti-Stigma Campaign for Mental Illness
Date: Feb 13, 2012, Noon
You're invited to attend the noon-hour launch of a new campaign that focuses on changing the way people think about mental illness.
The "Mend the Mind" campaign addresses the unfortunate reality that many people are afraid to seek help for mental illness because of the stigma (what people will think) of them receiving professional help. This stigma can lead to problems in a person's life, including gaining employment, social acceptance from peers and family and receiving proper medical treatment.
