Hi, how are you?

A Friendly Question to Start a Meaningful Conversation about Mental Health

Start the conversation: Just say "Hi, How are you?" These little words can make a BIG difference. A simple question like "Hi, how are you?" can help friends or family members open up about complex issues.

With genuine concern and no judgment, you can easily support people and even save lives.

WE ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO TEND TO THEIR MENTAL HEALTH just as we are taking precautions to maintain our physical health

BECAUSE MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS, I PLEDGE TO ASK OTHERS HI, HOW ARE YOU?

It's easy to start the conversation. Take this pledge and get us one step closer to removing the stigma around mental health.
