Medicinal Media is fundraising
Help Medicinal Media inspire and heal youth
Medicinal Media’s founders are now MATCHING ALL DONATIONS through Dec 31st.
I’m Melissa Wilson. I’m a social worker, mom, and founder of Medicinal Media, along with my husband, Mike. We were inspired to start this nonprofit because of our own personal journeys with mental health challenges and those of people close to us.
We’re now centering our efforts around the mental health crisis that so many young people are navigating, with over 20% reporting at least one major depressive episode in the past year and over 13% having serious thoughts of suicide (Mental Health America, 2024).
We also do this work in honor of our sister, Dr. Lisa Wilson. She, like so many, struggled with mental health issues for years until she took her own life. Lisa was a vibrant mother, grandmother, sister, and daughter. She was also a psychologist and professor who enjoyed teaching others. She loved music, playing the guitar, traveling, and dancing. She had a great sense of humor, too.
The more we share, talk about these issues, and celebrate what’s working, the more people we can help. Thank you for joining the Medicinal Media community and showing your support for this cause.
