Assurex Health Partners To #TackleDepression

The National Network of Depression Centers (NNDC) and Assurex Health are teaming up to launch #tackledepression, a national social media campaign to raise awareness that depression is a treatable illness. The campaign kicks off with an advertorial featured in the Super Bowl 50 special edition of USA Today.

The national print ad explains that mental illnesses like depression and anxiety are often misunderstood and carry a stigma, however the reality is one in seven Americans will suffer from depression in their lifetime, and shouldn't be afraid to seek treatment. It features a former NFL lineman who experienced and was treated for depression.

Assurex Health is a leader in genetic testing that assists healthcare providers in getting patients experiencing depression and other behavioral health conditions on the right medication faster.
