While May is Mental Health Awareness Month, the conversation around the importance of mental health care should continue all year long. With 1 in 5 Americans diagnosed with mental illness, it’s up to us to keep this issue top of mind for our clients. You never know when your message of support could reach someone who needs it the most.
This past month, AllyHealth joined the national call to raise awareness about this ever-growing issue – and the work does not stop there. From spreading awareness with key statistics from the National Alliance on Mental Illness, to sharing helpline resources for those in need, we are committed to prioritizing mental health – all year round.
Check out our Mental Health Awareness infographic here to arm yourself with the facts.
In addition to sharing resources, offering mental health as a part of your benefits plan is a great first step to make sure everyone on your book receives the support they need. With our virtual care services, members gain access to convenient, confidential and quality treatment by phone or video.
No one should lack the access to mental health care that may save their life – the time to act is now. Learn more about our mental health offerings here.
Let’s continue to be there for each other — we’re all in this together.
