Men's Depression

FY 2011-12

Summary
Our primary goal is to raise awareness of men's depression as a means to advancing the well-being of men and their families. Two objectives will be directed towards achieving our goal: 1. Support health care providers (HCPs), men and their families to understand and manage men's depression. 2. Highlight the patterns within sub-groups of men (i.e., college, middle age and older men) to reduce stigma and promote and support recovery from depression. Proposed activities: To achieve our goal and objectives, we will develop, pre-test and evaluate; 1) a website employing Web 2.0 applications including streaming videos, plain language brochures (PLBs) and a blog; and, 2) a men's depression smartphone application ('app').
