Girl Scouts Mental Health Awareness Patch

128-115057_0.jpg

The International Bipolar Foundation offers a mental health awareness patch to all scouting organizations including the Girl Scouts, Girl Guides, and others.

The Mental Health Awareness Patch objectives are to educate Girl Scouts about the brain and its influence on thoughts, feelings, and behavior, and through that knowledge, increase awareness and understanding of mental illness. Through education we can change perceptions and reduce the stigma of mental illness.

To learn more about how your organization can earn this patch, email them at agood@ibpf.org with "Mental Health Patch" in the subject line.
