Rural Ohio Communities Conference on Impacting Mental Health and Well-being by Addressing Stigma in Rural Communities
Mental health stigma is not only an interpersonal issue: it is a health crisis. There is no denial in Ohio that we need to come together to raise awareness and collaborate to combat the epidemic which is impacting lives and families throughout our great state.
Come join us to learn more about what stigma looks like and resources to make a difference in your community.
