?? PROGRESS UPDATE! ?? Learn more and donate here: https://nndc.org/campaign/ Mental illness impacts 1 in 5 adults and 1 in 6 youth each year in the U.S. That's why we're launching a fundraising campaign aimed at opening the door to more conversation, research and access to care. Championed as 'Open Minds, Open Doors: Uniting for Stigma-Free Depression Care for All,' we aim to continue to lift the burden of depression and bipolar disorder, increase innovations in treatment and further awareness of the stigma that surrounds this issue by raising $100,000 by the end of the year. Within the Network of the NNDC we’ve made incredible strides in understanding depression, but there’s so much more to discover. Every dollar we raise will go towards supporting a cause where cutting-edge research paves the way to finding better treatments, innovative therapies, and ultimately a brighter future. Access to quality mental health care should not be a luxury—it’s a right. Your donation will directly support initiatives that expand access to care, making sure that everyone, no matter their circumstances, can receive the support they need. Please consider making a donation, no matter the amount, or sharing your personal story in support of this cause. Together, we can create a world where open minds lead to open doors in support of stigma-free depression care for all.
