People Reaching Out to People (PROP®) is a mental health education program focused on addressing the underlying stigma often associated with depression and anxiety. Much of our mental health ‘awareness’ is littered with harmful stigma, borne out of outdated social standards. As long as our awareness is even partially influenced by such restrictive and debilitating social stigma, our ability in engaging empathetically with loved ones, friends and workmates will be compromised.
With the help from recognised academics and licensed practitioners, we have put together our Tutorial Series which is delivered electronically in four modules; each module taking no more than ten minutes to read. It is our belief that through education, we can break the social stigma and empower people to engage with friends and loved ones who are experiencing depression or anxiety. All we ask for is for your time to read and process these four modules. And, should you find this exercise helpful, to help us spread the word around our educational campaign. It takes a village.
