May is mental health awareness month, as part of National Mental Health Awareness Month, Philosophy’s hope & grace initiative partnered with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) to launch the stigmafree campaign, a national effort focused on shattering the stereotypes associated with mental illness. NAMI is the largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness. On May 19th joined Chicago Med’s Torrey DeVitto, hosted by Rachel McCord to help spread awareness on this initiative at Estérel Restaurant at the Sofitel Hotel. Attendees were deeply touched by the cause, especially blogger Jamie Stone talked about her siblings recent passing from a mental illness. The partnership is helping shed light on the more than 450 million people worldwide who suffer from mild to serious mental health issues.
