Muslims are less likely to seek mental health care — even when they need it most.
We want to help change that.
Join the #PopTheStigma Challenge to raise awareness and break the mental health silence in Muslim communities.
About The FYI
The Family & Youth Institute is a national organization focused on the mental health of Muslim Americans across their lifespan.
