Mental Health

Toy Brain

“Mental health can be defined as a state of mental well-being that enables people to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities, learn well and work well, and contribute to their community. It is an integral component of health and well-being that underpins our individual and collective abilities to make decisions, build relationships, and shape the world we live in. Mental health is a basic human right…The promotion, protection, and restoration of mental health are vital to individuals, communities, and societies throughout the world.” 

World Health Organization

It is a well-researched finding that Queer people are at increased risk for mental health concerns compared to cisgender/heterosexual people. Queer communities still experience significant emotional distress and mental health challenges as a result of: stigmatization, discrimination, and barriers to accessing mental healthcare services.
