Join the City of West Hollywood on May 18th for MENTAL HEALTH ACTION DAY!
The month of May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to work together to fight stigma, provide support, educate the public, and advocate for policies that support the millions of people living with mental illness and their families.
MENTAL HEALTH ACTION DAY was founded to shift mental health culture from awareness to action. Now in its 3rd year, this movement is powered by a growing coalition of more than 1750 nonprofits, brands, government agencies, and influential leaders from more than 32 countries that spread the message that, just like our physical health, we can take actions to improve our mental health.
The City will participate in MENTAL HEALTH ACTION DAY by sharing messages about mental health on its social media channels that you can share too!
For more information about how you can participate in MENTAL HEALTH ACTION DAY go to Mental Health Action Day.
