"Saying, Not Saying" campaign

“Saying, Not Saying” is a mental health campaign to reveal all the things left unsaid when answering the question, “How are you?” The goal is to show that mental health concerns aren’t always visible, but being honest about mental health can help people feel empowered to talk about it and seek help when needed. It’s a simple, powerful campaign that will help Wisconsinites understand the importance of their mental health. Promote this campaign in your community! Go to the DHS website for social media shareables [ [link removed] ] and tag your posts with #SayingNotSayingWI.
