Change The Stigma. Statistics. World.
May marks a time of collective reflection and action—a month dedicated wholly to amplifying the importance of mental health, breaking down the barriers of stigma, and fostering a community of support and understanding. At Project Blue Nose, Mental Health Awareness Month is not just a calendar event; it’s a vibrant call to action, an invitation to stand in solidarity with those navigating the complexities of mental health challenges, and a celebration of the resilience found within the human spirit.
Our Mission Statement
The mission of Project Blue Nose is to initiate the changing of stigmas surrounding mental illness while supporting the front line workers and establishments who are tackling these important issues on a daily basis.
The aim of this project is to raise awareness of depression, addiction and all other mental illness, through funding programs, events, and stakeholder initiatives, while supporting the preservation of life.
As we grow as an organization, we hope the Blue Nose represents the change in the stigmas surrounding mental illness. In a world where the color blue is often associated with being sad, down or depressed… it is the goal of this project to initiate change. Changing the sadness to happiness, changing seclusion to inclusion and bringing attention to a problem with a reachable solution.
Our goal for the Blue Nose is that it should represent one’s self-confidence and acceptance of the mental wellness they are practicing. Changing the stigmas around mental illness and using the blue nose to represent happiness and acceptance of a variety of individuals with different battles while building a community which accepts and assists others in a genuine way.
Through a variety of local and on-line events, Project Blue Nose plans to bring people and communities together to support and participate in changing the stigmas surrounding mental illness while supporting the front line workers and establishments who are tackling these important issues on a daily basis.
