Bring Change to Mind

Bring Change to Mind (BC2M) is a non-profit organization dedicated to ending the stigma and discrimination surrounding mental illness. Co-founded by actress Glenn Close in 2010, the organization focuses on creating multimedia campaigns, storytelling, and youth-led programs to encourage open conversations about mental health. Their primary initiatives include a national network of high school clubs that provide a safe space for students to discuss mental health and educate their peers. BC2M also partners with scientists and universities to evaluate the effectiveness of their programs in reducing stigma. By empowering youth and amplifying diverse voices, the organization aims to change the cultural narrative around mental health.
