For depressioNet to be able to help the people out there who need us, they need to know that it exists. We have a very limited budget for awareness and have done no active promotion to date. We do have wallet cards with the website address which we can send you if you have somewhere to put them or people to give them to. We will also soon have A3 posters that can be put in sporting venues, schools, workplaces, churches, community houses, etc. If you have any contacts in media that may be able to increase awareness by writing articles, community service announcements etc.
Word of mouth is a very valuable tool for increasing awareness.
Many people find Dnet on recommendations from friends, family and doctors who have had other patients tell them about the site. Remember that you can Help out as little or as much as you are comfortable with every little bit helps and is gratefully accepted. Most importantly remember that depressionet is here to help you. So always look after yourself first . If at anytime you feel you are no longer able to help out, that's fine.
