Cherish Your Mind: Understanding the Importance of Brain Health

An annual educational series, which includes two Mental Health Symposiums, the “Our Mind Matters” exhibition inside the Black and Minority Health Fair, and the “Cherish Your Mind” public awareness campaign designed to educate the Black community in Indianapolis on mental/brain health and wellness. The program seeks to annually serve participants, including individuals suffering from mental illness or diseases, caregivers, relatives, student-athletes, coaches, organizations providing support, and policymakers via its Mental Health Symposiums, Our Minds Matter exhibit and through our public awareness campaign.

The goals of the program are to:

  1. Educate the community, particularly caregivers on mental/brain health, including the importance of brain health and prevention strategies to reduce the risk of mental health issues and neurological conditions;
  2. Educate caregivers about community resources and support services available to individuals with mental health or neurological conditions and to facilitate connections between them and these resources to enhance their ability to seek support and access healthcare; and
  3. Reduce internal & public stigma of mental/brain conditions or illnesses.
