Mental Health Is For
Everyone.
Our mission is to promote mental health.
• We believe that Mental Health Is For Everyone.
• Mental health is not just for the severely ill -- the people who cannot function in society. We all need help, mentally, as well as spiritually and physically.
Mental Health Is For Everyone.
• After all, we are supposed to see the dentist twice a year and to get an annual physical exam.
• What about your mental health?
Mental Health is not an “either-or thing” in which you are
“crazy” or you are not.
Mental health is not like being pregnant in which you either are or you are not.
Unlike mental health,there is no “in between” when you are pregnant.
Mental Health is a Continuum
• Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) - Subjective rating scale used by mental health professionals
• GAF - Evaluates social, occupational, and psychological functioning of adults and children.
• A Continuum from 100 to 1– From practically no problems …– to normal problems …– to serious problems that require
institutionalization.
… furthermore ….
Just like untreated cancer, tooth
decay or any physical problem,
mental health may get worse
when left untreated.
We all need an occasional “tune up”.
• All of us need to maintain and improve our mental health.
• Many of us are not.
We all are a little crazy.
Goals for
Our Mission
Our Mission
… to reach out to the public through advertising and marketing that
promotes
“Mental Health is for Everyone”
Mission Statement:
To accept that advertising outreach is not only necessary, but is a moral
obligation of mental professionals to reach to people who they could help.
Our mission is to use advertising to change incorrect attitudes
such as:• Receiving psychological help indicates weakness
and should be rejected as taboo• Only the wealthy can afford these services • Mental illness is strange and mysterious, thus
beyond the common man’s understanding• Psychotherapy takes time and can drag on for years • Mental health treatment only makes one feel better
superficially but does not truly resolve the problem and make it go away
