2025 Theme: Turn Awareness into Action
Since founding Mental Health Month in 1949, each May, Mental Health America has led the charge to promote mental wellness during Mental Health Month. This year’s theme is "Turn Awareness into Action".
The vital role of mental health is more visible than ever before, but awareness alone isn't enough. Now is the moment to turn awareness into powerful, positive action for lasting change.
Every action—seeking help, supporting others, practicing self-care, or advocating for change—matters. This May, let’s turn awareness into meaningful action for ourselves and our communities, building a future where everyone can thrive.
