What is It's Okay Not To Be Okay

Welcome to the official website of It's Okay To NOT Be Okay, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting mental health awareness. Throughout life, individuals often face challenging times that may lead to feelings of sadness, anxiety, or a general sense of unease. These emotions are completely normal and valid. What’s most important is learning healthy strategies to manage these feelings before they develop into more serious concerns.

Unfortunately, access to reliable information and support for emotional well-being remains limited for many. That’s where we come in. Our team provides school-based presentations for seventh-grade students as they prepare to transition into high school—a period often marked by increased stress and emotional demands. We help students recognize and understand their emotions, identify their triggers, and apply evidence-based coping strategies.

All of the content we deliver is grounded in research from reputable sources within the mental health field. To learn more about our program and how to schedule a presentation at your school, please explore the rest of our website.
