Spearheaded by MTV Entertainment Studios and TaskForce, the third annual Mental Health Action Day was held on Thursday, May 18 with more than 2,000 organizations, brands, government agencies, and cultural leaders supporting the global movement that encourages and empowers people to take action for mental health.

“We’ve been focusing on mental health and mindfulness programming since our inception in 2016, and with our recent change to working with Katapy as our technology partner to deliver next level OTT streaming services to global audiences we have been successful in reaching more people than ever before.” - Kent Speakman, CEO, KNEKT TV, “We are so excited to partner with so many great organizations and content creators to connect with content that matters.”
“We are proud to come together with this diverse group of influential and purpose-driven partners who share our commitment to empowering and encouraging people to shift from mental health awareness to mental health action,” said Erika Soto Lamb, Vice President of Social Impact Strategy at MTV Entertainment Studios. “When we recognize that mental health is health, we have an opportunity to demystify, destigmatize and normalize taking actions to help ourselves and each other.”
This year’s call to action is to dedicate one hour to a mental health action for yourself, your loved ones, or your community. Participants are encouraged to take their first steps towards mental health action — whether for themselves, for their loved ones or to advocate for systemic changes through a wide range of tools. Free resources and tools, such as an employer toolkit and platforms for hosting and organizing events, are available for organizations and groups to help support their audiences through a myriad of ways - from starting a meditation practice to learning how to support a friend to advocating for change.
Cultural leaders including Arianna Huffington, Deepak Chopra and Gabriella Wright, and brands and organizations including Snapchat, YouTube, Reddit, NAACP and NAMI, are among those joining Mental Health Action Day 2023. A full list of partners is available at mentalhealthaction.network/partners.
