Protecting Mental Health

We want everyone to have the tools and resources needed to feel supported + emotionally resilient in the face of the climate crisis. We address the mental health consequences of climate change through education, community engagement and by harnessing the power of media and technology. #ClimateMentalHealth #climatecrisis #ecoanxiety #mentalhealth

From eco-anxiety to the direct effects of forest fires, rising sea levels, and other natural disasters, climate change is an existential crisis for our planet and species.

Our work focuses on understanding the ways this crisis impacts our communities and identifying what we can do to mitigate and adapt in order to improve the mental health and wellbeing of all people impacted by climate change.
