1 in 5 people experience a mental health challenge
In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, the 1in5 campaign helps turn awareness into action through education, conversation, and access to support.
Why this matters
When we talk openly about mental health, we help more people feel supported, valued, and empowered to seek care.
Every conversation helps build understanding, strengthen communities, and encourage wellbeing. These statistics show why this movement matters and why every conversation counts—at work, at home, and in our communities.
