Where Mental Health and Society Meet Mental Health impacts virtually every aspect of our lives, yet it seems we don’t talk about it enough. Mental Health is a public health crisis, and it’s time we discuss how mental wellness impacts our society. The Mental Society is a place for us to do just that; to have open, honest, and deep discussions about how mental health affects every corner of our society. Join us as we open up the conversation and explore how mental health influences our world and everyone living there. We will uncover just how important mental health and wellness are and how it impacts relationships, careers, finances, health, access to care, the criminal justice system, and more.
