Mental Health stigma remains a significant barrier to accessing care and support in many low- resource settings, including Southeastern Liberia. This study evaluates the effectiveness of public health campaigns in reducing stigma associated with mental health disorders in the region. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research assesses changes in public perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors before and after campaign interventions. Data collection includes surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions with community members, healthcare workers, and local leaders. Findings indicate that targeted awareness campaigns, particularly in schools and those incorporating community engagement and culturally relevant messaging, contribute to increased knowledge and improved attitudes toward mental health. However, persistent challenges such as deep-rooted cultural beliefs and limited mental health services hinder sustained progress. The study provides recommendations for enhancing future public health initiatives to further reduce stigma and improve mental health outcomes in Southeastern Liberia.
