National Depression Screening Day began as an effort to reach individuals across the nation with important mental health education and connect them with support services. Screening for Mental Health (SMH) pioneered National Depression Screening Day as the first, voluntary, mental health screening initiative in 1991. More than two-decades later, NDSD has expanded to thousands of colleges, community-based organizations, and military installations providing the program to the public each year. The stigma of depression has lifted and many people find they can successfully overcome this disease with therapy and/or medication.
