Resources

Mental Health Awareness Month is celebrated to fight stigma, educate the public, and advocate for policies that support people with mental illness. We’ve put together an online collection of social media posts and graphics to outline the significant role mental health plays in overall health and wellness and promote better mental health for children, families, and caregivers.

These on-line modules, with extensive input from over 70 national organizations, are designed to help shift the approaches we have often used in promoting safe sleep and breastfeeding and to pull them together since they are all part of caring for a new baby.

In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re sharing a social media toolkit and infographic to raise awareness and share resources that can change the way the world sees mental health. Download these resources to use on your own social channels and make sure to tag @NICHQ so we can like and share your post.
