Active Minds is the nation’s only grassroots organization dedicated to the mental health of college students. The organization serves as the young adult voice in mental health advocacy on campuses nationwide.

The Johns Hopkins University Active Minds Chapter aims to increase awareness about mental health issues, decrease the stigma surrounding them, provide students with resources and information, encourage anyone in need to ask for help, and act as a liaison between the Counseling Center and student body.
