Bring Change 2 Mind

Have you seen the campaign featuring actress Glenn Close and her sister which confronts, head-on, the stigma associated with mental illness?

The Balanced Mind Foundation wishes to thank Ms. Close for leading this campaign as well as several key participants who donated their time, talent and resources on behalf of the cause. The public service announcement for the initiative was directed by nine-time nominated and two-time Oscar winning director, Ron Howard. Two-time Grammy winning composer and singer, John Mayer, donated his song, Say, for use in the PSA. 

Ms. Close also led the team of leading mental health organizations, called BringChange2Mind.org, to combat the stigma related to mental illness
