WHY MENTAL HEALTH?

Over 20% of the population lives with a mental health or substance use disorder.

From academic achievement to economic mobility and overall equality, mental health and addiction play a central role in every major social issue.

Mindful Philanthropy envisions a world in which all funders are invested in solutions that integrate mental health and well-being so that all people have equitable access to the tools and resources they need to be well.
