About the organisation - We at MYND Initiative Inc. believe that mental health matters to everyone and that everyone has their own story to tell. Our mission is to remove the stigma associated with mental illness, help people to develop good mental health hygiene, develop skills to cope in a mental health crisis and to feel comfortable talking about their own mental health. In doing this we hope to develop communities of understanding who are able to listen to and support those struggling with mental health issues as well as enabling those communities to develop individualised mental health awareness programs.
