Erie County Anti-Stigma Coalition

If you think talking about mental illness is scary, imagine what happens when we don't talk. Join the conversation. Silence the stigma.

16 organizations. 1 common goal.
Why would some of the most prominent mental health groups and community thought leaders in Western New York invest their time, money and energy for one singular purpose? Because we think that life depends on it.
The Erie County Anti-Stigma Coalition was formed to stop the stigma surrounding mental health. We're doing it by creating a community conversation where people can share their stories, their struggles, and their successes with each other.
Through our efforts, we hope that people dealing with mental health challenges will know that they are not alone, help is available and recovery is possible.
