Mission

The mission of This is my Brave, Inc. is to end the stigma surrounding mental illness by shining a light on mental health issues through artistic expression (spoken word poetry, original music and essay readings). This is my Brave is the leading platform for individuals with lived experience to share their stories of living successful lives despite a diagnosis of a mental illness in front of a live audience. We have a national reach, serving various cities where we are able to identify a volunteer producer to lead the effort to create a This is my Brave performance for their community. Our reach is extended through the professional videotaping of each performance, which we then upload to our public YouTube channel for all to access.

About
