Answer to Poll #1

FALSE

Friends and loved ones can make a big difference. Only 44% of adults and less than 20% of children receive needed mental health treatment. We can be important influences to help someone get the treatment and services they need by:

-Reaching out and letting them know you are available to help
-Helping them access mental health services
-Learning and sharing facts about mental health
-Treating them with respect
-Refusing to define them by their diagnosis or using labels such as "crazy"
