The Misconception of Mental Illness: Judy Zhou at TEDxYouth@CityOfIndustry

What does our society not understand about mental illness? Even in its progress towards equality, the negative stigma continues. Judy Zhou, a student activist, speaks out against this issue. She talks about her creation: The Project Jovi Foundation in hopes of reaching out to high school students who are struggling from various mental disorders.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
