World Mental Health Day
Silver Ribbon (Singapore) is a proud affiliated member organization of World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH, website: www.wfmh.org).
Richard C. Hunter, Deputy Secretary General of WFMH from 1983 through 2002, envisioned world mental health day as a global and unified effort to promote greater public awareness and understanding of mental health and mental illness.
His dream continues to be realized each year on October 10 or in the month of October. Now, World Mental Health Day is celebrated annually in over 100 countries. Each year we become more excited to see the ever increasing number and effort that is put into educating, promoting and changing the world’s image of mental illness. No matter how large or small, each event raises awareness which eventually leads to a more educated public.
Silver Ribbon (Singapore) organizes mental health events regularly to combat mental health stigma and encourage early treatment. In addition, we have organized, or co-organised, or participated in the following events to commemorate World Mental Health Day in the month of October:
