100% of attendees felt the event created awareness of mental health issues
97% said that the workshop helped them confront and address stigma related to mental illness
82% of those not already receiving support reported an increased likelihood to reach out for help
[My takeaway:] That it’s important for you to feel like you are not alone. That you can handle situations and get through them, but if not there are resources that are perfectly willing and able to help support you. "
