Storytelling Programs

Storytelling Programs are designed to raise awareness of mental health, suicide and substance use, create safe and healthy environments for sharing and increase knowledge of community resources.  In this 3-year MHSA plan, the Storytelling Program under PEI was expanded to include a digital storytelling component. Participants in the digital storytelling program have the opportunity to create short videos that share their personal experiences with mental illness, substance use, and recovery. 

Organizations providing Storytelling programs include National Alliance on Mental Illness and Opening the World.
