Repost 💚 Mental health is now the world’s number one health concern. Not cancer. Not heart disease. Mental health, ranked first by people across 31 countries in the largest global health survey of its kind.

Yet 700 million people live with a mental health condition, and fewer than half will ever receive treatment. In low- and middle-income countries, nine in ten receive no support whatsoever.

This is not a resourcing problem. It is a prioritisation problem.

This Mental Health Awareness Week, the evidence points clearly to what must change: earlier intervention, open conversations that dismantle stigma, community-based services that meet people where they are, and genuine investment in the social conditions, poverty, housing, discrimination, isolation, that drive mental ill-health long before any clinic visit.

We know what works. The gap between evidence and action is where people suffer.

Last Saturday, 5.2.26, the first in-person Stolen Lives Induction Ceremony in New York in years took place at St. Mary’s Episcopal Church in Harlem.

The Stolen Lives Induction Ceremony is a solemn, yet empowering occasion at which recent and past victims of police killings are formally inducted into the roster of the Stolen Lives Project. The Stolen Lives Induction Ceremony is both an affirmation of life and a call to action. It allows the Stolen Life, demonized by the powers-that-be, to be remembered the way they should be remembered: by those who love them – and for that truth to be shared with all those in attendance.

At these ceremonies, families speak of their loved ones and their struggles for justice, their voices joined by community organizers and others in the fight against police violence, as well as artists who contribute their art and performance for healing, for strength, for empowerment. The ceremonies end with a pledge by all in attendance, as a (re)affirmation of our commitment to the struggle.

is honored to share this space with Impacted Families and communities who share heartbreak, and calls for justice due to police brutality and lack of accountability. Simultaneously, also a space that retains love, honor, truth, resilience, ambition, courage, hope...In Solidarity! We are honored Eudes was Inducted a few years ago by and honored to bittersweetly offer the same care and recognition to past and recent families.

Thank you to for including amd honoring us and all Impacted Families with such intention and acknowledgement.

#988

[EXCERPTS] 💚 Over the two and a half years following the 2022 rollout of the 988 national su***de prevention hotline, the rate of su***des among young people in the United States dropped 11 percent below projections, decreasing most sharply in states with a higher volume of answered 988 calls, a new study has found.

The findings, published today as a research letter in JAMA, compared su***de deaths from July 2022 to December 2024 with sophisticated mathematical projections that were based on historical trends. This yielded good news, with 4,372 fewer su***des of adolescents and young adults, ages 15 to 34, than had been projected.

“What our study has added,” he said, “is evidence for the deeper benefit of the program, and that is, that at the population level, among young people at least, su***de mortality is lower than it would have been without the program.”

“To me, that really helps hone in that this might really be the differentiator,” she said. “We are seeing potentially a pretty significant decline in su***des among young people. For public policy, this is strong evidence to double down on that we are doing.”

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Awareness is pivotal to both help end shame and stigma, but also a reminder, we are not alone. Every May, this is one of the ways we honor Eudes' Legacy; encouraging the sharing of knowledge and recognition essential to help transform this system that continues to criminalize Mental Health.

Mental Health is Health. Some fast facts according to website:

🎗1 in 5
More than 1 in 5 U.S. adults experience mental illness each year
Source

🎗 1 in 20
More than 1 in 20 U.S. adults experience serious mental illness each year
1 in 7
More than 1 in 7 U.S. youth ages 6-17 experience a mental health disorder each year

🎗50%
of all lifetime mental illness begins by age 14, and 75% by age 24

🎗2nd leading
Su***de is the 2nd leading cause of death among people ages 10-24

Eudes was killed because his Mental Health was considered a threat. will not allow that to be the main narrative of his story. Eudes lived! He meant and still means so much to many people. This is why we continue to say his name and share his story.

Mental Health is not a Crime! Resources, services, and funding are imperative to both prevent crises and provide a humane crisis response. Funding for pilots, peers, housing that is dignified, affordable, and sustainable, respite centers, stabilization, support, and connection centers are critical to transforming and maintaining this new system. Treating and giving people with mental health diagnoses and concerns respect and autonomy, ensures that us and our loved ones can survive beyond the moment of crisis.

Eudes didn't receive the preventative care, medical mental health crisis response, nor the contiuum of care he needed to recover, to still be here physically with us today. This month, every Thursday, we will share content focusing on the systematic change we are advocating for. We must remember that change comes when we are deliberate, intentional, proactive, collaborative, consistent, ambitious, relentless, hopeful, and amenable.

There's a day spotlighting POLICE BRUTALITY. Let that sink in...

Repost from • Today is International Day Against Police Brutality [March 15], and as a reminder: It’s not just “a few bad apples.” Police violence is a systemic problem in the U.S., and it happens on a scale far greater than other wealthy nations.

Thank you to NYAARPR for organizing, Moderator Ruby and Speakers Shivani and Daniel for your Voices and Solidarity. 📣🕊✊🏾

[EXCERPT] Brooklyn, NY – Dozens of community members gathered for a picket at the NYPD’s 71st Precinct in Brooklyn on March 31. In December 2021, 26-year-old Haitian American Eudes Pierre dialed 911 while experiencing a mental health crisis. Instead of assistance or care, officers Peter Lan and Conrado Abreu-Gerez from the 71st Precinct followed him in and out of a train station and to his home before shooting him ten times.

The murder of Eudes Pierre demonstrates how the NYPD continues to kill and brutalize the people of New York with near-impunity. Their violence falls disproportionately on Black, brown, immigrant and unhoused New Yorkers, as well as those experiencing mental health crises.

Abreu-Gerez continues to work at the 71st Precinct. The New York Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (NYAARPR), along with Eudes Pierre’s family, organized the picket to confront Abreu-Gerez along with his associates and demand that he be immediately fired and prosecuted...

To maintain and build pressure on the NYPD, the New York Alliance will continue to picket the 71st Precinct on the last Thursday of each month. The next picket will be at 6 p.m. on Thursday, April 30. Along with Eudes Pierre’s family, the New York Alliance continues to fight for justice for Eudes Pierre and for community control of the police.

This piece is very important to and is often left out of the conversation too many times: Police Accountability and Family Support; Healing...Justice.

As we reimagine how to transform this system, we must remember the victims and the families still awaiting and fighting for true Justice.

Thank you to Wilbert from the for relaying this message to Ms. Francois. We hope this Admistration will move more intently and tap in to Impacted Families, grassroots orgs, and community activists with genuine ties to our communities. People who are doing this work everyday from the bottom-up. Let's Work!

Still...Justice for Eudes Pierre. Justice for Impacted Families.

[EXCERPT] {Wilbert L. Cooper} I spoke recently with Sheina Banatte, the managing director of . Her cousin, Eudes Pierre, was shot by the NYPD in 2021 while he was experiencing a mental health crisis. Banatte is aware that the OCS is seeking to expand victim services in the city, but what will it offer the people who’ve been harmed by the police?

{Deputy Mayor Renita Francois} That's a really good question, and it's one of the really hard questions that we need to bring folks together to think about. I empathize with Sheina and her family. I'm sorry for it, but I think that there is an opportunity for us to really hear from people who have had an experience like Sheina and learn from them about what their expectations would be around how the city can best help them heal. Our law enforcement partners can also learn how we should be responding to these types of issues. The Office of Community Safety is supporting programs like B-Heard because we want to ensure that law enforcement is not the sole responder to folks who are in mental health crisis.
