“Music is the medicine of the mind.” – John Logan

These three awesome young women had the medicine! They decided to create a Battle of the Bands for Mental Health. This project featured three bands competing in an ultimate battle wherein they wrote and played songs concerning mental health/illness and stigma. This action-packed initiative was meant for youth-to-youth communication about mental health/illness in an anti-stigma zone.
