Think Mental Health Ja

Think Mental Health Jamaica (TMHJ) was inspired by the realization that many communities across Jamaica remain far removed from conversations on mental health and wellness (therefore stigmas flourish). By taking a more direct approach, we intend to bridge the gap to connect with individuals on a more personal level. Our mission is to transform the way Jamaicans understand and treat mental health and illnesses, through the promotion of mental wellness and demystification of mental illnesses - thereby removing barriers to care. Through each interaction, we encourage empathy, self-care and help-seeking habits. Everyone has a mental health. In the course of a lifetime, not all people will experience a mental illness, but everyone will struggle or have a challenge with their mental well-being. Mental health is everyone’s business.
