Venable Grant Awarded to ADAA

The Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) is  delighted to announce that we have been awarded a 2018 grant from the Venable Foundation

Immigrant and refugee families in the US face significant barriers in accessing mental health care services. Some of these barriers include: higher levels of stigma, misinformation about mental health, language differences and stressors associated with migration and resettlement. Funding from the Venable grant will allow ADAA to enhance our diversity focused mental health resources that specifically target the immigrant/refugee population. These resources include consumer webinars, blog posts, online support groups and more for immigrant and refugee families.
