An institution in the role of a National Chapter of EAAD takes the national leadership of all EAAD related activities. If your country does not have a National Chapter, you can establish one and take the lead in coordinating efforts to improve access to depression care and prevent suicidal behaviour in your country. National Chapters serve as central hubs, supporting regional initiatives and implementing the EAAD Community-Based 4-Level Intervention and establishing regional Alliances Against Depression.
If you are interested in establishing a National Chapter, please contact us: contact@eaad.net.
Are you interested in improving access to depression care and preventing suicidal behaviour in your region? Join EAAD by creating a regional Alliance Against Depression and implementing the Community-Based 4-Level Intervention.
Alliances Against Depression can be started by anyone interested in enhancing depression support in their region.

Successful alliances unite professionals from various fields.
