Description
Active Minds is the nation's only grassroots mental health awareness, education, and advocacy organization on the college campus, dedicated to engaging young adults in the fight against stigma and suicide. Our mission is to utilize peer outreach to increase college students' awareness of mental health issues, provide information about available resources, encourage students to seek help as soon as it is needed, and serve as liaison between students and the mental health community. By planning campus-wide events that promote awareness and education, the group aims to remove the stigma that surrounds mental illness and create an open environment for discussion of mental health issues.
