Friday Five – Mental Illness Awareness Week
As we look ahead to Mental Illness Awareness Week, it’s imperative that we shed light on a topic often shrouded in silence and stigma. The week serves as a poignant reminder that mental health is as vital as physical health, and it’s time we prioritize open conversations, empathy, and support for those facing the challenges of mental illness. This week’s Friday Five highlights some of our HCNR episodes discussing the challenges of mental health and how AI and digital resources can help.
