Course Details

Mental Health Stigma Workshop

This course will explore mental health stigma and identify ways you can challenge stigma in your community. Mental Health stigma and discrimination prevent people from seeking help: this can delay treatment and impair recovery.  It isolates people, excluding them from day-to-day activities and making it hard to build new relationships or sustain current ones. It can stop people getting or keeping jobs. Experiencing a mental health problem is hard enough, without having to deal with the shame and isolation that often comes with it. Someone you know will have a mental health condition or be experiencing poor mental health right now – a family member, your friend, your workmate. They just might not know how to tell you. Being open to mental health can break down any stigma surrounding it. You don’t have to be an expert to talk and to listen, and often it’s the little things that make a big difference.
