Free Resources For All Communities

On Our Sleeves, a program of The Kids Mental Health Foundation, is a community-based partnership with leading children’s hospitals and behavioral health providers. Focused on starting conversations and breaking stigmas, On Our Sleeves was created by Nationwide Children's Hospital to provide free resources to families, caregivers, educators, and coaches in communities across the country. Because we know kids don’t wear their thoughts on their sleeves, this program gives them a voice.

On Our Sleeves launched on World Mental Health Day 2018 as the On Our Sleeves Movement For Children’s Mental Health to an overwhelming reception and immediate impact. Audiences from all over the country began engaging with On Our Sleeves, rapidly increasing the mission’s reach and influence.

In 2024, The On Our Sleeves Movement for Children’s Mental Health expanded its mission to become The Kids Mental Health Foundation. This transformation reflects the spirit of our mission to provide free, expert-created resources to all U.S. communities so everyone can understand and promote mental health for children. On Our Sleeves remains as the heart of the organization’s content approach and Health Care Partner program.
