Erasing Stigma

Deconstructing Stigma works to build greater understanding and compassion around mental health through public and professional education efforts around the globe. Together, we can change the way the world thinks about mental health.

Real People, Brave Stories

Told through the eyes of its participants, our stigma reduction campaign boldly challenges the misconceptions of what those with mental health disorders look like.
