About Beyond the Label
Beyond the Label (BTL) is a nation-wide movement started in 2018 by National Council of Social Service (NCSS) which focuses on addressing stigma and promoting social inclusion for persons with mental health conditions (PMHCs).
According to the Singapore Mental Health Study 2016, one in seven adults have experienced a mental health condition in their lifetime. More than three-quarters of people with a mental health condition in their lifetime did not seek any professional help.
Led by NCSS and TOUCH Community Services, the agencies under the BTL Collective will work in partnership with stakeholders in the mental health ecosystem to encourage everyone to go-beyond mental health conversations, to take action and to actively reach out to people who may need help or individuals to take steps to address self-stigma.
