Mental Health Research

About 26 percent of Americans each year suffer from a mental health disorder like depression, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and anorexia. Our mental health affects our family, our job, how well we live and how soon we die. It’s important to find effective treatments and ways to prevent the damage from mental illness.
