Knowledge is one of the most powerful tools against stigma. We regularly share information on common mental health conditions, like anxiety and depression, and address myths versus facts. Through events, social media, and discussions, we work to build a more informed and supportive community.
Stereotypes about mental health are often based on misunderstanding. We talk openly about issues like therapy, medication, and mental health struggles to show that these experiences are normal and that they don’t define a person’s identity. By discussing these topics, we challenge stereotypes and encourage others to rethink their views.
A big part of ending stigma is creating a safe space where people feel comfortable talking about mental health. In PPA meetings, we make room for everyone to share experiences, ask questions, and learn from each other. This openness allows us to connect and understand mental health better.
People from all backgrounds can experience mental health issues, and stigma often affects them differently. We’re committed to fostering a community where everyone feels valued and supported, recognizing that mental health is a universal experience, no matter your background.
Ending stigma requires everyone’s help, from students to teachers and staff. We organize activities and events that bring the whole school together in support of mental health awareness, like stress-relief events, mental health awareness weeks, and talks from experts.
Join us in making our school a place where mental health is understood and respected, where everyone feels safe reaching out, and where no one has to face mental health challenges alone.
