Mental Wellness Week: Stack Against Stigma

Submitted by Abigail Olsen

Join Mental Wellness Week for Stack Against Stigma! A large number of myths and misconceptions surround mental health. For example; "seeking counseling services means I have a mental illness." This is false. A challenge for many people is to try and reduce this stigma in small and simple ways.

Stigma reducing giant Jenga and other yard games including basketball and Twister will be available from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sept. 20 in Bosco Student Plaza. Don't miss out!
