Date: December 13, 2024

Webinar Description: Discover how Yates INSYGHT, in collaboration with the Yates County Community Services Department, is transforming rural mental health care by promoting stigma reduction. This initiative utilized countywide billboard and bus wrap messaging, postcard distributions, and QR code-linked posters to normalize mental health conversations and support resources. Through a social media campaign that reached 46,000 individuals, the project expanded its impact across Yates County, creating safe spaces for open discussions. Partnerships with local organizations further amplified efforts, including a community celebration for Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day, helping foster a supportive environment for all residents.
