Clark County Combined Health District
Mental Health Awareness Month is celebrated to fight stigma, educate the public, and advocate for policies that support people with mental illness. We’ve put together an online collection of social media posts and graphics to outline the significant role mental health plays in overall health and wellness and promote better mental health for children, families, and caregivers.
We all likely know someone who has experienced mental illness. Yet there are still many harmful attitudes that fuel stigma and make it harder to reach out for help.
Help eliminate stigma that creates barriers for those living with mental health conditions and support the health of children and families by taking the StigmaFree pledge.
