Community Programs for Mental Health
1N5 Community Mental Wellness Program
Our vision is a world without suicide and a community of people with optimal mental health. Since 2010, 1N5 has been leading transformational mental health work in the Cincinnati region. Our mission is to prevent suicide by erasing the stigma around mental illness and promoting optimal mental wellness.
1N5 partners with community organizations and universities to normalize mental health and break down the barriers preventing our youth from seeking help. Because every community is unique, there is not a one-size-fits-all model.
