Mental Health Non-Profit, We’re All A Little “Crazy” selects schools for #SameHere Sit-Downs College Campus Tour
We’re All A Little “Crazy” – is The Global Mental Health Alliance founded by former professional sports executive, Eric Kussin, alongside athletes, celebrities, influencers, and expert practitioners who are focusing on “normalizing” mental health conversations by speaking about their own battles, face-to-face with communities, and encouraging others to do the same. The Alliance members making up “The #SameHere Movement” are all united through the American Sign Language symbol for #SameHere – a symbol showcasing that we all experience our own battles and challenges that affect our mental health – an inevitable part of life.
We’re All A Little “Crazy” is going on tour with ESPN’s Darren Rovell and #SameHere Celebrity Alliance members, to visit 15 colleges and universities nationwide (list below).
