Break the silence, change the story.

Stigma remains one of the biggest barriers to individuals seeking help for mental health, substance use, and developmental challenges. It creates silence, shame, and isolation, preventing people from reaching out, speaking up, or getting the support they need. For many, the fear of being judged outweighs the hope of recovery.

Stand Up to Stigma is more than just an event; it’s a movement to shift the conversation. We aim to break down harmful stereotypes through powerful storytelling, community engagement, and open dialogue while building a culture of compassion and understanding.

By being a part of this event, you help us send a clear message: healing begins with acceptance, and every voice raised in support brings us one step closer to a stigma-free community.

Why Stand Up To Stigma?

The demand for behavioral health services is growing, and so is the need for compassionate, inclusive care. Your sponsorship ensures that Seven Counties Services can continue expanding access, reducing stigma, and providing comprehensive care to those who need it most.
