About La Maida Project
La Maida Project is reframing how people understand mental health and well-being. Current solutions around mental health often strongly focus on changing our health through an individual lens, concentrating on modifying personal health and behaviors in isolation. However, these conventional strategies often fall short, leaving critical gaps in addressing the multifaceted nature of mental wellness. La Maida Project (LMP) is working to address these gaps by embracing an ecological lens: one that reminds us to address the root causes of disconnection and promote collective healing.
