Mental Health Awareness

This October, the Catholic Church in the United States is renewing its National Catholic Mental Health Campaign (NCMHC), encouraging all people to become more aware of the issues, eliminate the stigmas around mental illness, and seek creative ways to journey with those who struggle. This can be done now through personal and community accompaniment and by advocating for effective and compassionate public policy around mental health and wellness. As the late Pope Francis once said, "Caring for others is not just a skilled job but a real mission." Now is the time to step into this mission.

Start with the Nationwide Novena. 

Celebrate Mental Health Sunday on October 12, 2025.
