The Links, Incorporated joins the world in recognizing World Mental Health Day—a time to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and reaffirm that mental health is an essential part of our overall health and well-being.
 
Mental Health remains an important priority to The Links, Incorporated and will ensure voices are heard to help shape the programs, and resources for our community.

This year’s theme, “Lived experiences heard: real voices, real change,” reminds us of the power of listening to and learning from people with lived experiences.
