Our Mission
We believe that mental wellness is a fundamental aspect of overall well-being and that everyone deserves help to navigate life's challenges.
-
With the unprecedented demand for mental health services and the prohibitively high costs often not covered by insurance, we realized this crisis must be addressed in innovative and creative ways.
-
We need to promote wellness through personal understanding and the power of community.
-
By offering a variety of resources and tools in the form of presentations, books, curriculum, podcasts, and workshops, we can enhance traditional mental health care and create a space where individuals feel empowered to prioritize their mental health.
-
Access to relevant and meaningful content in a safe and comfortable environment raises awareness, fosters education, and creates community that will help to break down the stigma surrounding mental health building a more open and welcoming place for those struggling as well as their support systems.
Together we can work to improve mental health outcomes and create a more compassionate and understanding world.
We base our work at Getting Thru Together on Three Pillars: Education, Awareness and Community
Education: We work to empower individuals with the foundational knowledge, tools and preventative strategies needed to address mental well-being.
Awareness: We strive to broaden public understanding and acceptance of mental health as a critical component of overall wellness leading to reduced stigma, easier access and policy changes to support mental health services
Community: We are committed to providing a social support network through the creation of a safe space for individuals to share experiences and seek advice offering a network of allies as a testament to the fact that no one should have to face their struggles alone.
The mental health crisis is the pandemic without a vaccine.
