Vision
We envision a world where all people with mental health conditions can live, work, and thrive in every workplace and community without experiencing stigma and prejudice.
Mission
To build relationships and community that eliminate mental health stigma and prejudice. We do this by empowering our global network of Stability Leaders to share their lived experiences through advocacy storytelling in workplaces and communities.
What is “advocacy storytelling”?
Advocacy storytelling uses stories from our lived experiences to change minds for good. We don’t just want to tell the best story. We want our stories to call audiences to action, to reduce stigma, and to advocate for our vision of a better world. Our advocacy storytelling approach was developed in partnership with Living Proof Advocacy.
Our Core Values
These values clarify our core beliefs, support our vision, and shape our culture.
Anti-racist Learning and Practices: We value anti-racist learning and practices because we learn from the Lived Experiences of Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) and improve our practices based on reflection, intention, and accountability. Colonization, racism, and oppressive systems have impacted BIPOC communities’ mental health throughout history and today.
Lived Experience: We value the Lived Experiences of our Stability Leaders because our voices are essential in conversations around mental health.
Equitable Access: We value using our resources equitably because everyone should be able to advocate for access to the support they need.
Community: We value community because when we build relationships and collaborate, we create a thriving, inspirational mental health movement. We are stronger when we advocate together.
Vulnerable Leadership: We value leadership based on vulnerability because it is a source of strength. We see the humanity in each other and lead with compassion and kindness.
Impact: We value meaningful and transformational impact because we are accountable and transparent to the people and communities we serve.
