Value proposition

A global platform for local collective action, committed to transforming the state of mental health policy and practice

citiesRISE is a global platform for local collective action, committed to transforming the state of mental health policy and practice for young people nationally and globally. We envision a world in which communities support young people to develop resilience, make healthy choices, and lead productive lives by mainstreaming mental health across sectors. Our goal is to reach 1 billion young people with services and information by 2030 to turn the tide on depression, addiction and suicide through evidence-based interventions and community experience. We currently have teams and partnerships in Bogota, Chennai, Nairobi, Sacramento and Seattle.
