Step Up
A program aimed at eliminating the stigma.

Many people who do not understand mental illness think that there is something shameful about this type of problem. The stigma that surrounds mental illnesses can stop people from getting an education, a home, and a job. In fact, many people do not seek treatment because they fear stigma and discrimination. MHAST staff are available to groups or organizations to:

• Provide education regarding mental illnesses.
• Assist with the development of empowerment activities.
• Help in establishing achievable goals for the elimination of stigma in your group or organization.
• Offer opportunities to make a difference.
