Take the Pledge to reduce stigma and discrimination in our community
I pledge to reduce stigma and discrimination around mental illness by:
- Educating myself and others about mental health and mental illness…
- Removing words like “crazy” or “insane” from my vocabulary…
- Being an ally to those who live with a mental illness or those who have a loved one who live with a mental illness…
- Keeping an open mind about mental health conditions and the individuals who live with them…
- Starting conversations to share my mental health experience or to listen to another person’s story…
in order to create a safe space for those living with a mental health condition in Sacramento County.
