📣 Join the Movement: Care Not Custody
"Nothing about us, without us."

Today is a massive milestone for our community. At the 79th World Health Assembly in Geneva, members of GMHAN officially took to the stage to launch a movement that is incredibly important to our global community: Care Not Custody.

Led by the powerful advocacy of our members Tiwa, Divya, and Matt, this campaign is a global call to action. We are demanding a world where everyone has the right to live with dignity, make their own choices, and receive mental health support built on compassion and inclusion within their own communities, not isolation.

🎥 Watch the Campaign Video & Amplify!
This isn't just about changing policy; it's about changing lives and honoring our collective stories. To make this the loudest message coming out of Geneva this week, we need your help amplifying it.

Let’s lift each other's voices and show the world the power of lived experience.
