Stronger Than Stigma® (“STS”) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization designed as a "for us, by us" social movement dedicated to Next Gen mental health advocacy. STS works to break down the barriers that keep people from reaching out for help and to eliminate the stigma around doing so, by creating meaningful experiences—in person and online—that bring people together and prove that no one is alone in their struggle. STS believes that the millennial generation will be the force behind this needed social change and it's leading the way, one experience at a time. STS was founded in 2013, while the founder was a student at the University of Florida. In 2020, STS' reach became global due to its pivot to virtual programming in response to the pandemic, reaching 50,000 people worldwide.
