Call to Mind

Everyone has mental health. All of us experience various levels of mental well-being at different points in our life. Half of us will personally experience at least one mental health condition in our lifetime. Yet, misconceptions and discrimination still harm people with mental illnesses, causing people to suffer in silence, avoid seeking care or restrict access to effective treatment.

Call to Mind is MPR News’ initiative to foster new conversations about mental health hosted by Kimberly Adams and produced by Jessica Bari.
