Abstract
Mental health and mental health disorders are stigmatized in our society today. Many people suffer from mental health disorders but are not willing to seek treatments due to various concerns. One big factor is lack of awareness about mental health disorders and brushing mental health issues as something “non-medical” or “all in your head.” This view is especially prevalent among our refugees and new immigrant communities. This project aims to bring about awareness regarding mental health in our local Vermont communities and will emphasize the availability of treatments.
