This campaign focuses on young adult men of colour who face difficulties in the areas of mental health and wellness. Central to the campaign is a video, where a group of participants share their experiences and perspectives about well-being. An interactive installation ‘Pick Your Poison’ invites visitors to learn about mental illnesses. A more in-depth handbook acts as a call-to-action. Posters, cards and other merchandise were also designed as a part of the campaign. The campaign now has an Instagram handle with the hashtag #ImprisonNoMore.
