As someone with firsthand experience with anxiety and situational depression, I have seen the growing need for mental health awareness and action. After losing my nephew to a substance-use disorder, I became committed to breaking the stigma surrounding all mental health disorders, not just substance use ones. My mission is to help others become Mental Health First Aiders and provide early intervention skills to support those in need.
