Abstract

This study examines the impact of mental health awareness programs on reducing stigma in low-income communities in Indonesia. Through an analysis of community workshops, educational campaigns, and outreach initiatives, the research evaluates the effectiveness of these programs in changing community attitudes toward mental health issues and promoting help-seeking behaviors. The findings indicate that mental health awareness programs significantly reduce stigma and increase understanding, though cultural and social barriers remain obstacles to broader acceptance and utilization of mental health services.
