Beyond the Label is a movement to address stigma faced by persons with mental health conditions in society. It aims to encourage the public to go beyond the label of a mental health diagnosis, and to view and regard persons with mental health conditions for who they are. We hope to raise awareness of the stigma, educate and equip the public with tips and knowledge to support persons in recovery from mental health conditions, and to facilitate more conversations on mental health.
If you would like to play a part in reducing mental health stigma, you are welcomed to join us as a Beyond the Label volunteer! Please provide your contact details via this Google Form, and we will contact you for suitable volunteering opportunities. Volunteers will help in Beyond the Label events, engage various stakeholders at events organised by partners, as well as raise awareness of Beyond the Label and what it seeks to achieve. For enquiries, please contact the NCSS Mental Health Services team at ncss_mental_health@ncss.gov.sg.
