ForLikeMinds
Approximately one in five adults in the U.S. experiences mental illness each year. It affects so many of us, and yet anxiety, depression, substance use, and other disorders can be incredibly isolating. Inspired by the compassionate community that fostered her own recovery, Katherine Ponte WG01 created ForLikeMinds, a peer-to-peer support site that connects people living with or caring for those in similar circumstances. After a quick, secure sign-up survey, members chat in private forums with groups or individuals who share their conditions, life events, or relatable demographics, including age, language, and student or military status. As members share experiences, Ponte hopes, together they’ll thrive.
