Welcome

The mission of the Center for Mental Health and Media
(a division of the Massachusetts General Hospital Department of Psychiatry) is to save lives, comfort and educate families, and to change the public's outdated and inaccurate perceptions of the nature, causes and treatment of mental illness. To do this we connect some of the most powerful forces in today's society—the mass media—with one of the most pressing health and economic issues in both the industrialized and underdeveloped worlds: mental health.

The first step to healing is knowing.

Massachusetts General Hospital is qualified as a non-profit organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
