Mental Health Literacy

Mental health is part of overall health. Just like it’s important to be informed about your health, it’s equally important to be informed about your mental health. Mental Health Literacy aims to take the best available scientific evidence on mental health and make it easy to understand and accessible for everyone. The team is committed to creating and delivering the highest quality mental health literacy information, research, education, and resources. The materials are provided in a variety of mediums that include videos, animations, brochures, e-books, face-to-face training programs, and online training programs. They are specifically designed to meet the needs of children, youth, young adults, families, educators, community agencies, and health care providers. Mental Health Literacy has permitted Journey Magazine to publish articles from their website (MentalHealthLiteracy.org) for this column. A special thank you to their team for allowing us to amplify their work! Please visit their website - recoveryanswers.org to learn more
