The Spread the Word Campaign has a simple message: Everyone deserves someone to talk to.

Spread the Word Campaign grants will provide support for neighborhood-based youth groups to increase their capacity to provide activities that promote the Coalition’s messages for normalizing mental health issues within their programs by conducting innovative, youth-driven projects to support youth emotional wellness and mental health in their community. In addition, representatives from each group funded will come together to create a citywide Youth Advisory Group to provide guidance and input into the Campaign and the Coalition.
