Brain and behavior disorders are common in the United States and internationally. An estimated 26.2% of Americans ages 18 and older-about -1 in 4 adults-suffer from one or more of these disorders in a given year. Brain and behavior disorders are common among children in the United States and are increasingly being recognized and diagnosed at an early age. Just over 20%  (or, 1 in 5) children live with a debilitating mental illness.

Out of the 10 leading causes of disabilties indentified and tracked in the United States and other developed countries; four are brain and behavior disorders: major depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and obesessive-compulsive disorder.

100% of all donations go towards research.
