Message from our Patron

“Mental health touches every family, every community, and every country. It shapes how we live, how we connect, and how we contribute to the world around us. Rotary’s work in mental health is about dignity, hope, and ensuring that no one feels alone in their struggles. By listening without judgment, supporting meaningful services, and breaking down stigma, I am so grateful to all the members of Rotary who are helping to build healthier communities where people can truly thrive. This is service at its most human—and it matters deeply.”
Gordon McInally
Past Rotary International President (2023-24)

TOOLKITS

Rotary members have proven effective in overcoming stigma in order to bring polio vaccinations into all communities by dispelling the myths that had for decades prevented this medical resource from reaching every child. Rotary members are now proving effective not only overcoming stigma around mental health but also introducing resources to raise awareness and to increase access. This latter occurs by increasing capacity for prevention and earlier treatment. On this page are resources in the form of toolkits that every Rotary member can introduce locally:

Break stigma (Looking Inward, Don't Bottle it Up, PIP)
Raise awareness (PIP, Resilience, Launch a District Chapter, Wellness in a Box)
Increase access and capacity for prevention and early treatment (A Lever)
