Since 1949, Mental Health America and its affiliates across the country have led the observance of Mental Health Awareness Month by reaching millions of people through the media, local events and screenings.

We welcome other organizations and individuals to join us in spreading the word that mental health is something everyone should care about by using the 2023 Mental Health Month toolkit materials and conducting awareness activities.

This Mental Health Month, challenge yourself to examine your world and how it can affect your overall health. Look around, look within – from your neighborhood to genetics, many factors come into play when it comes to your mental health. Our 2023 Mental Health Month toolkit includes information about how an individual’s environment impacts their mental health, suggestions for making changes to improve and maintain mental well-being, and how to seek help for mental health challenges.
