6 Lessons from the Death of Chester Bennington

5) Raise Awareness about Mental Health and Well-Being in Your Community

Encourage your imam and your community to learn more about mental health and wellness. Encourage panel discussions, classes, halaqas and khutbahs on the topics of mental health, depression, anxiety and other mental health challenges in your masjid. If you’re involved in your youth group or MSA encourage the same discussions to happen in your halaqas, events and programs. We need to create as many safe spaces as possible and increase awareness about mental health and well-being as much as possible.
