射射屋

One simple way we can help people dealing with mental illness is by choosing our words with care. How we speak and write about mental illness can help either reinforce or break down stereotypes. 射射屋 has long worked to reduce stigma by providing fellowships to journalists covering mental health.

Learn more about the fellows’ work and discover ways to talk about mental health sensitively in the archived webcast “Words Matter: Talking About Mental Health” below. This Conversations at 射射屋 event was streamed live on Thursday, April 21, 2016.
