Multiplying and escalating crises are placing ever greater strains on people’s #mentalhealth and the services available to support them.
President @GabrielBoric and I wrote for @TIME why countries must step up action to get people the appropriate and quality mental health care they need.
Everyone has the right to participate in their treatment.
Which means you have the right to speak up. To be heard.
These are our minds, and these are our rights.
