Mental Health & WellnessThe Commonwealth Club is proud to partner with the John Pritzker Family Fund on a series of public events addressing mental health, wellness and reducing stigma associated with mental illness. Beginning in 2019, the series has been a combination of in-person and virtual events featuring celebrity ambassadors, policy advocates, UCSF Department of Psychiatry medical experts, business leaders and everyday people, all shedding light on a subject that is too often left in the shadows of society. The series is dedicated to the memory of Nancy Friend Pritzker. The programs are archived here and accessible to the public so that their important messages and personal experiences can continue to reach audiences and those in need of support.
