Stronger Than Stigma® (“STS”) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization designed as a "for us, by us" social movement dedicated to Next Gen mental health advocacy. STS works to break down the barriers that keep people from reaching out for help and to eliminate the stigma around doing so, by creating meaningful experiences—in person and online—that bring people together and prove that no one is alone in their struggle. STS believes that the millennial generation will be the force behind this needed social change and it's leading the way, one experience at a time. 

This is a grassroots movement educating, connecting, and helping people cope. We’re not therapists. We’re not a resource list. We’re not a hotline. We’re millennials with real-life experiences who understand the struggle and know what it’s like to seek treatment. Join us. You belong. Together, we can change things for our generation and beyond.

Our grandparents denied it was a thing. Our parents snuck off to therapy. Our generation is not hiding anymore! We know that everyone has mental health to care for and sometimes we hit rough patches--there's nothing to be ashamed of; it's part of the human condition and reaching out for help and support when you need it is a sign of strength, not a weakness.
