LETTER: Teaching the Stigma Around Mental Health Struggles

Regarding the recent Daily Post article, ON EDGE: Colorado’s Shadow Epidemic, Part One…

…and the sentence:

“in a state where stigma around mental health struggles runs high”

May I supply a missing word:

“in a state where teaching a stigma around mental health struggles runs high”

There are to my knowledge no states where teaching that prejudice does not run high. The negative results of cooperating with that lesson are easily measurable.
