Share Your Peer Support Stories With the Hashtag Showcase
To celebrate National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day 2014, we are highlighting the importance of peer support, which is critical in making the transition to adulthood easier for young adults with mental health and substance use challenges.
Beginning now, and through May 8, SAMHSA is hosting a "hashtag showcase." During this showcase, we invite young adults across the country who have faced mental and/or substance use disorders to share their personal stories of resilience and peer support.
Using the hashtag #IGetSupportFrom, please share photos, videos, tweets, and status updates showing how peer support has helped you tackle challenges related to:
- Housing
- Education
- Employment
- Health care
You can post messages on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or Tumblr.
