Mental Health awareness is the best way to eradicate the stigma attached to these disorders and ensure that families and individuals seek out and accept the help that they need. The best way to move forward as a community is to educate each other. Fear of the unknown is a huge factor in why parents and families avoid getting and/or accepting help. That education can take place through a variety of junctures- schools, entertainment, mailed pamphlets, social media. Opening up the lines of communication will make way for productive discussions and ensure that our children get the help that they need and ultimately save lives!
