why we exist
Mental health problems are on the rise, especially for the younger generations, and mental health resources are often not accessible and not inclusive of stigmatized populations. Traditional, and even some modern, resources are too expensive, too judgmental, and too inaccessible.
We believe in a comprehensive approach to mental wellness - just like support groups, educational services, and entertainment-/experience-based activities are encouraged for overall physical wellness, our community membership, content, and courses are just some of the ways to begin improving your overall mental wellness.
