WHY HEMINGWAY EXISTS
Fighting the good fight
Improving population mental health is the greatest challenge of our time.
Today, hundreds of millions of people live with mental disorders. This can have a huge impact on their lives; impacting their ability to function, work, socialise and find fulfilment.
Unfortunately, population mental health is trending in the wrong direction.
Unless we find better ways to prevent, identify and treat these disorders, these trends will continue. We need a better understanding of mental illness. We need new treatments. We need new models of care and new ways to fund them. While the field of mental health has come a long way, we still have a lot to do.
Like it always does, this change will come from a group of passionate, talented people who take on this challenge.
Hemingway exists to support those people. Our job is to give them the knowledge and community that will make their job easier. To help them in their fight to create a mentally healthier world.
Keep fighting the good fight,
Steve Duke · Founder & CEO of Hemingway
