‘Mental health is a universal human right.’ I just found out that this is the theme for World Mental Health Day, which is today! The theme was chosen because it “emphasises the necessity of assuring that everyone, regardless of age, socioeconomic class, or background should have access to high-quality mental health care and support.” (According to NDTV dot com). When I read this, it brought joy to my soul. This is a big reason why we started Heare Brotherhood in the first place. We saw the accessibility gap between the needs of many men, and the resources that they weren’t able to access just because of where they were born, or for whatever reason. Our mission is to forge a global brotherhood of support and growth. We are already represented in 32 countries and on every continent. But we won’t stop until every man knows that he has a place at the table; a brotherhood of support. It’s what I love most about Heare Brotherhood. You see men from every situation. We see all types of age, race, nationality, life experience, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, etc. Men- if you haven’t joined us yet, please know there’s a place for you. Search “Heare Brotherhood” on the App Store or on Google Play store (or click the link in the comments), then come and introduce yourself on the app. I promise you’ll be welcomed with loving arms to a brotherhood of men who want to support each other and help each other to grow. #mentalhealth #worldmentalhealthday #mensmentalhealth #globalmentalhealthday JUSTIN BREY 𝌻 Michael Allen ☶ Jason Rogers, MBA Christopher Hales Mike Hubbard Benjamin M.
