Fifty2 End Stigma
According to Mental Health America, over 52 million American adults face mental health challenges. Less than half will receive treatment. That’s why Family Services is taking strides to end stigma and increase awareness about the support systems that exist right here in the Hudson Valley.
In October, we want you to MOVE with us by challenging yourself to complete 52 miles in one month while raising awareness about mental wellness and fundraise for Family Services’ critical programs. We want you to TALK to your friends and family about mental health and invite them to join the movement. With your commitment, everyone can exercise their right to THRIVE.
