Advocacy in Mental Health

Advocacy in mental health involves supporting and promoting the rights, awareness, and understanding of individuals with mental health conditions. It aims to reduce stigma, improve access to quality care, and ensure their voices are heard in policy and community decisions. Advocates work to educate the public, influence policies, and provide resources to empower those affected, fostering a more inclusive and supportive environment. Essentially, mental health advocacy is about championing the needs and dignity of individuals facing mental health challenges.
