Title | David Susman PhD | Resources & Inspiration for Better Mental Health |
Description | I've been fortunate to have connected with a lot of terrific mental health advocates from all around the world over the last several years. I've been blown away by their courage, determination, and compassion, as they fight to reduce stigma and discrimination and raise awareness around mental health issues. Despite the great work done by these advocates, they are sometimes not well known to the public. Therefore, I thought it would be helpful to periodically highlight some of these advocates to call attention to their worthwhile contributions. It's always risky to make a list where you single out specific people, as you invariably leave out many other amazing folks. But I'll take that risk and will start with a list of 13 wonderful mental health advocates you definitely need to know more about. I hope to highlight many more additional advocates from time to time in the future. I've previously talked about some of the qualities of great advocates, including being passionate, knowledgeable, inspiring, persistent, and goal-oriented. All of the advocates listed below display these qualities in abundance. However, since I don't want to favor one person more than any other, I'll just list them alphabetically by last name. As a final disclaimer, I can't begin to capture all of the worthwhile efforts these folks are involved in so I'll mention just a couple of items for each person. Through the links provided, you can connect further with them and learn more about their activities. Okay, here we go.
