Mental Health

Every day, we hear of shootings, homelessness, pandemics, and drugs. These issues are all linked to mental health.

N&R Publications partners with nonprofit and government agencies to shift the conversation around mental health issues and highlight the important and innovative work they do. There are positive stories to tell about mental health, and these stories educate and destigmatize mental health issues while also recruiting employees, collaborators, patients, funding, and support from policymakers.

For many people, stigma can be a barrier to addressing mental health problems. Stigma can manifest in many different ways. There can be stigma against wanting to get help, or stigma against admitting that they suffer from a mental health problem. For certain populations, stigma can be more specific. We all can benefit from identifying stigmas we consciously or subconsciously have. Once we identify them, hopefully they will no longer act as a barrier to getting services, or interfere with the way we interact with people who may need support. By telling stories of people who articulate stigmas/barriers they experienced before getting services, others will become more aware of stigma.
