Athlete Mental Health Week Is Here!
#AMHW2026 is a nationwide movement to amplify and unite athletes’ voices, advocate for #MentalHealthInSports, and break down stigma.
Athlete Mental Health Week brings athletes, teams, schools, and organizations together to amplify athlete voices, share real stories, and prioritize mental well-being in sport. Through engaging conversations, virtual sessions, and practical resources, we’re creating space for learning, connection, and action on and off the field.
Save the date and sign up to join us February 2-8, 2026 for the third annual Athlete Mental Health Week.
