MAKING TEEN MENTAL HEALTH A NATIONAL PRIORITY

At the intersection of struggle and hope lies Michael’s Giving H.A.N.D. – raising awareness, educating communities, supporting the mental well-being of teens struggling with anxiety and depression, and challenging attitudes toward mental illnesses to produce a stigma-free future through our programs.

Michael’s Giving H.A.N.D. believes in the inherent worth and dignity of every individual.

We are committed to fostering a culture of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) that embraces the uniqueness of each person’s identity and experience.

We are staunchly dedicated to providing accessible services and resources that accommodate diverse needs. This includes removing physical, social, and systemic barriers to mental health care, ensuring that our programs and initiatives are inclusive and considerate of various abilities and backgrounds.
By upholding the principles of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Michael’s Giving H.A.N.D. reflects the strength and beauty of our diverse world. Together, we work towards a future where mental health support is accessible, equitable, and respectful of each individual.

Silence. Loneliness. Hushed conversations. Harsh labels. Feeling invisible. All of these things fuel the stigma surrounding mental health conditions. Let’s replace them with: Encouragement. Understanding. Compassion. Support. Hope. Love. Please take one minute to share our message so that we can create a stigma-free future and save lives! #1Min1Life #MGHPhilly
