society of valued minds

Young people are sidelined by mental health. While awareness and conversations around mental health are rising alongside prevalence, young adults are still being left out by a world that devalues them. Their well-being, beliefs, and even who they are as a person is deprioritized and stigmatized. There is no one place where they can connect, learn, and find a sense of worthiness and belonging.
We created a movement through social media that changes peoples’ beliefs about what mental illness is and what it means to live with it. The Society of Valued Minds invites young adults to reclaim their lives from mental illness, share their stories, seek out support, and embrace what makes each and every single one of them special. Blending the power of artistic expression with breakthrough moments in culture, we used social media to bring vibrancy and relevance to this space.
