A year ago a group of young girls, who were a part of the 1000 Girls 1000 Futures Mentorship Program of the New York Academy of Science, were having this virtual conversation. We realized albeit painfully that in spite of the fact that we come from diverse cultures, we were all facing a similar challenge- the stigma surrounding mental health.

We were fueled by a passion to make the world a safer space to talk about mental health. That is how Mind Champs was born.

​

We offer youngsters from across the globe a platform to speak up about mental health issues through articles, poems, and works of art. Through interviews with experts, our magazine seeks to demystify various symptoms and impacts of the demonic conditions that plague our minds. By highlighting youth-led initiatives in the realm of mental health awareness and the positive impact it has on their communities, we seek to inspire more and more youngsters to break the shackles of shame and champion for change.
