Today, Akeela joins Mental Health America in ringing the Bell of Hope on their anniversary as a powerful reminder that while mental health challenges are often invisible, they deserve to be seen, understood, and supported.

Each ring honors the progress made in breaking stigma and lifting the voices of people living with mental illness. It also calls us forward toward greater compassion, access to care, and lasting recovery for all.

Mental Health America was established by a person with lived experience Clifford W. Beers. During his stays in public and private institutions, Beers witnessed and was subjected to horrible abuse. From these experiences, Beers set into motion a reform movement that took shape as Mental Health Americ...

What we see, share, and engage with online can shape our mental and emotional health.

A safer, better internet is one where people feel respected, informed, and empowered. When we protect our online spaces, we also protect the conversations that influence how we think, feel, and connect with one another.

At Akeela, we reflect on Safer Internet Day because we believe healthy communication (online and off) is part of building resilience and long-term wellness.

Mental health challenges affect about 1 in 4 people, yet many still carry their struggles in silence because of shame or fear. Starting a conversation (listening without judgment, or sharing how you’re really doing) can open the door to connection and support.

Today is a perfect day to begin with a reminder that talking about mental health can change lives. At Akeela, we believe every conversation is a step toward healing.
