About This Episode
Kelly Davis works to empower youth at Mental Health America to advocate for equality in mental health services and to reduce the stigma that still exists in many communities.
Drawing from her own personal experiences navigating the mental healthcare system, Kelly guides us through how to be an ally during a crisis, how we can maintain hope when there’s so much chaos in the world, and how improving mental health outcomes isn’t just about access to services or improving services, but it’s also about “creating a world that doesn’t harm people’s mental health.”
