STRIKE OUT STIGMA BASEBALL NIGHT
Connection, Resources, and Support
Montgomery, Ala. – The Alabama Department of Mental Health (ADMH), River Region community partners, and the Montgomery Biscuits are stepping up to the plate once again for Strike Out Stigma Night, an annual event with a goal of increasing awareness around mental illness, substance use disorders, and co-occurring conditions.
Join us on Friday, May 16, at 6:35 p.m. at Riverwalk Stadium for a night of baseball, connection, and conversation. Visitors can stop by provider booths and resource tables offering support and links to services for individuals and families navigating mental health and substance use challenges.
Mental illness and substance use disorders are experienced by more than 930,000 Alabamians annually (Mental Health America, 2024). Despite the prevalence, stigma continues to be one of the biggest barriers to seeking help. Strike Out Stigma Night is an opportunity to connect with community mental health partners and get real-time information on local resources for yourself or a loved one.
