Equipping the next generation of mental health advocates

We provide tools for youth and young adults to continue growing as mental health advocates, especially at the intersections of social justice movements including gun violence, climate change, and voting rights.

Active Minds currently serves the largest network of mental health advocates nationwide and is uniquely positioned to provide youth leadership programs that equip youth and young adults with the skills, confidence, and connection they need to be effective now and into their future as they grow in their own communities, families, and careers.
