Campaign Overview
On October 10, join thousands of others in a global day of action for positive mental health and help end the stigma forever.
Mental health affects us all. In the time it will take you to read this page, one person on average will have chosen to end their own life. Mental ill health remains one of the leading causes of death and disability across the world, but too often we fail to address it, talk about it, or invest in preventing it.
No individual company, government, or community can end this global pandemic on their own – but by making a stand together we can create a worldwide ripple that causes a sea change in how we approach mental health in society.
It’s time to act. It’s time to be part of the ripple.
Take action

Our Check-in Tools
#SameHere
#SameHere is a Global Mental Health Movement. Our mission is to normalize society’s perception of mental health and make it part of our everyday conversation.
The SameHere Scale check-in tool is based on a science called “Polyvagal” which measures shifts in the health of our nervous systems, based on both the challenging and productive life experiences we live through.
