Since 2021, Execs In The Know’s Leading with Impact campaign has been focused on raising awareness surrounding mental health. Our aim is to continue working to break past the stigma often associated with mental health issues and address these issues head on. Our actions, no matter how big or small, can provide hope to those who are struggling.
We’re working alongside organizations with the goal of helping companies and individuals move down a stigma-free path, where those affected by mental health challenges can seek support without fear of judgment.
Together, we can advocate for better access to mental health care and build awareness surrounding how to respond in a crisis.
