The Bandana Project

Home 9 Outreach & Prevention 9 Suicide Prevention 9 The Bandana Project

History

The Bandana Project was founded on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus in January of 2016 with the help of a NAMI On Campus chapter. The Bandana Project is a simple yet innovative suicide prevention and mental health awareness movement. Members tie a lime-green bandana to their backpack, signifying they are in possession of region-specific and national resources. They pledge to support the mental health of those in their life, and reject stigma associated with mental illness. As an organization, we support chapters in creating community connections, bolstering resources, and making positive changes in mental health promotion and suicide prevention. This proliferates resources, normalizes and de-stigmatizes getting help, and provides invaluable, unspoken solidarity with those struggling.
