Stigma Busters: A Mental Health Podcast
Stigma Busters was created in 2021 with the goal of educating the Wood County community about mental health issues. These conversations with local mental health professionals and advocates in the Wood County, Ohio community are informative discussions on stereotypes about mental health disorders, how family and friends can help their loved ones, the impact of policy change, and more. Mental health can and will affect us all, but we still don't talk enough about it... but why? Join NAMI Wood County, your local voice on mental illness, in the fight to address stigma, and educate our community one episode at a time!
