May is National Mental Health Month. Mental health month raises awareness of trauma and the impact it can have on the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of children, families, and communities. Mental Health Month was established in 1949 to increase awareness of the importance of mental health and wellness in the lives’ of every individual, and to celebrate recovery from mental illness. Mental health is essential for a person's overall health. Prevention works, treatment is effective, and people can recover from mental disorders and live full and productive lives. In today’s time with so much going on and the impact of the pandemic, mental health has become an even more important topic to highlight. So, in today’s conversation we will give space to amazing and pioneering women who are continuing the fight to address mental health gaps and increase awareness.
