Communities Together Can

Around the World, We ARE DEDICATED IN OUR FIGHT TO END MENTAL HEALTH STIGMA

WHO WE ARE

Building Communities for Those living with Mental Illness

In 2012, Break Yo Stigma (BYS) had one goal: to raise mental health awareness and money for NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) chapters in the Bay Area, California. The team was a success and raised over $500 for the cause. When the NAMIWalks event was over, BYS social media accounts were created months later to raise more mental health awareness online. During that time, not many organizations and individuals openly shared about their mental health issues like today. Over the years, as Brandon Huy Ha managed the accounts, a growing community began supporting him and his efforts. It was an organic and healing process for the BYS family.

OUR APPROACH​

We Facilitate Safe Spaces​ and Further Mental Health Advocacy

The Mental Health Forum is a space for like-minded individuals in recovery from mental illness to talk, vent, and meet others in similar situations. Speak freely and anonymously, where our moderators and volunteers ensure community safety.

We will also participate in research projects at local Bay Area universities and partner with other mental health organizations. Locally in San Jose, California, we will be working directly with Mayor Matt Mahan’s office to aid those affected by mental illness in the city. We would love for you to join our mission to break the mental health stigma. Without your support and contribution, none of this would be possible. Thank you kindly and may you see light in recovery.
