Our core beleifs

Mental Health Stigma

Community Connections

Mental Health Stigma

Mental health is largely stigmatized in our society where it must be normalized to discuss mental health and seek help without judgement. 

What we want

Community Connections

Mental Health Stigma

Mental Health Initiative wants to build a bridge and a connection between parent and/or trusted adults with their children and/or students. As a result of building this bridge, the discussion of mental health will become normalized and destigmatized.

I am a co-founder and board member of the Mental Health Initiative, which I founded because I feel that the conversation around mental health between high school students and their parents is not as prevalent as it should be, so I wanted to do something about it.

Hi! My name is Noora Fayad and I am a Senior at Saratoga High School. I am a  board member of MHI and I am in the Mental Health Initiative because I believe that mental health is an integral part of the human experience. Many schools, such as Saratoga High School, are growing highly competitive as the years go on where it is severely affecting the mental health of students. Students need to be able to have a toolbox of coping mechanisms to be able to truly succeed in all aspects of life and that is what MHI can provide and advocate for.

Noora Fayad

Hi! I’m Emma Foley, a board member of MHI and a Senior at Saratoga High. Growing up in a hyper competitive area, it was disheartening to see so many of my friends and family struggle with their mental health. Through this group, I want to have a positive impact on my community and help others who are suffering from the same issues.
