Barrier Talks: Virtual Community Focus Group

Mental health affects all of us—and every voice matters in the journey toward healing.

Step’s Foundation invites you to join our Barrier Talks Community Focus Group, a virtual space where residents, caregivers, youth allies, and community members can speak openly about mental health, access to care, stigma, and what supports are needed in real life, not just on paper.

Whether you’ve faced challenges yourself, helped a friend, or simply care about building a healthier community, we want to hear from you.

Why Participate?

• Share your experiences with local systems, support networks, and mental health services

• Help identify barriers and solutions that reflect your community’s reality
