Mental Health Awareness Month

At Pitt, Mental Health Awareness Month (MHAM) is an annual observance held during the month of October to spread awareness, promote understanding, and diminish the stigma behind mental health. To learn some more about the myriad of events being held throughout the month, we talked to one of our students leading the effort for Mental Health Awareness Month, Sanai Overton. Sanai is the Student Government Board’s Wellness Chair and leads in planning Mental Health Awareness Month.
