Mental illness is of the darkest places to be in. Let’s hold your hand along the journey.

Let's do this together

Filling the gap

When someone is chalilah faced with a physical illness, there are countless organizations ready to support them. But for those who struggle with mental illness, there is usually a massive lack of support available. That’s where Illuminate Ohr comes in. We’re building a system of essential supports for children, teens and young adults with mental illness.
