Believing that the right exposure promotes knowledge and understanding, photojournalists Adeline Ong and Lim Chin Ping embarked on a project to put a face to mental illness.
The result is Out of Sight Out of Mind, a photo documentary done over a five-month period to share the stories of patients living in rehabilitation homes.

ABOUT this campaign

there are two aims we want to achieve:

1) that mentally ill people are the same as you and I in every other way

2) that there should be no shame in seeking help for such problems

we'll be having a mental health awareness campaign from 26-28 august, so do look out for us!

[edit:010909] thank you all for your kind support during our campaign! we will still continue to post up useful information about conferences and CIP opportunities and occasionally facts and videos, so do stay tuned to our blog! because there has been some technical errors with the comments and tagboard, we have also recently opened up an e-mail account: x.team09@gmail.com! so just drop us an email if you have any queries or clarifications (: [/edit]
