Founded in 2020, Reality And You (RAY) is a community-based organization aimed to help individuals deal with mental health issues especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. Removing the stigma associated with mental health disorders was of prime importance even before the pandemic. The pandemic halted many lives, people lost their jobs, their freedom and their basic routine. Work from home and multi-tasking with online schooling put many adults in a continuous state of exhaustion. With a global lockdown teenagers and children reported higher number of panic attacks and aggressive outbursts.
Regardless of age, gender, status and culture no one seems immune to mental health problems. Our mission is to assist this global mental health concern in not only building the foundation for awareness programs, but also creating an environment for inclusion of individuals suffering from mental health concerns and further providing resources for counseling.
