RESOURCES
The Ampersand Project is part of a much larger movement to de-stigmatise mental health, but it shouldn’t be used in place of professional mental healthcare. So we’d like to highlight some other organisations that we think are doing amazing work, particularly around tackling stigma related to mental health, and championing the voices of young adults.
We think the work they’re doing is awesome, and we want to point you to their websites, in case you think they can help you. This list is by no means exhaustive, and we’re always happy to add more links and resources. So if you represent, or know of, an organisation with relevant aims and interests that we haven’t included, please let us know!
