Whether someone has recently been diagnosed or has been living with a mental health challenge for most of their life, the experience can be very isolating. No one should suffer in silence. No one ought to feel alone.

We offer mental health education, training, and presentations to the greater Chicagoland community to increase understanding and decrease stigma connected to mental health and suicide. Many programs offer professional CEUs.
