Final thoughts…

Raising awareness about mental illness is the first step in diminishing the discrimination that often comes with it.  Thank you so much for following our blog and joining the fight against Mental Health Discrimination.  To continue learning about this cause, there are many organizations you can follow that are dedicated to supporting those affected by mental illness.  The National Alliance on Mental Illness is one leading organization that raises money and awareness for mental health each year through walks, advocacy talks, conventions, and awareness events around the country.

As our nation grows in innovations and scientific discoveries, we learn more about how to better our society.  This includes deleting discrimination against minority populations. This includes those with mental illness, and it is our responsibility to not allow them to be forgotten.
