Help MN Thrives come to life!

Be one of the 1,000 Initiatives for Well-being in Minnesota

MNthrives Campaign 2022

 

We are facing many challenges to our mental health and well-being. AND Minnesotans are doing amazing work to address every aspect of our well-being. Despite our interconnected world, we often don’t know about many of these innovative efforts!

MN Thrives is here to change that! MN Thrives is a collectively sourced interactive database of mental well-being initiatives in Minnesota. This tool can help us know what is happening in each county, identify potential gaps, and learn about innovative strategies to promote mental well-being in other communities.  

MN Thrives is intended to be a living resource that provides a comprehensive picture of mental health promotion strategies in Minnesota.  But it has to be populated to be useful.  The goal is to get 1,000 entries in the MN Thrives database by the end of 2022!

Can you help?!
