Stories of friendship, acceptance and social inclusion are being shared in a new report released by the Mental Health Foundation.
In association with Like Minds, Like Mine, Stories of Success is the latest part of a national programme to reduce the stigma and discrimination associated with mental illness.
“Social inclusion is a basic human need and right,” says Hugh Norriss from the Mental Health Foundation of NZ in the report.
The report reveals the powerful role friends, whānau, employers, and others play in recovery from mental illness.
