Tackling Taboos, Smashing Silence
Smashing Silence and Tackling Taboos -
Topics in Mental Health
Smashing Silence and Tackling Taboos is a series started in 2015 to address issues that impact many of us either directly or through others we know and to promote mental health for everyone we can reach.
We have held several events geared toward discussing mental health issues and identifying resources for individuals who need help. We hope to raise awareness of and destigmatize these topics.We hope these resources can be of value to people who are seeking help, and to friends and families who support others whom they care about:
Seeking help or giving help can be critical to living a healthy life.
