Bring Change 2 Mind is an organization focused on reducing stigma around mental health which is one of the big focuses of May’s Mental Health Awareness Month. Bring Change 2 Mind has had several campaigns over the past few years, their most recent one features NFL All Pro wide receiver Brandon Marshall of the Chicago Bears. Marshall, a current NFL Player and standout, had shared his diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder. He has since been receiving support and services and is able to manage his issue. Kings County Behavioral Health has partnered with Bring Change 2 Mind’s campaign with Brandon Marshall to help reduce stigma A) among males B) among African American Transition Aged Youth (14-25) and C) Youth. Behavioral Health has the Brandon Marshall ads/PSA on its website's home page, at the Hanford Movies 8 Cinema, and is working on both mobile ads and billboards. The ads at the movie theater started airing in mid-April and will go all the way to next year’s Super Bowl (2016).
