Shine The Light Founder Eli Brown: “Why we need to take mental health history into consideration in the justice system”
<p>I<em>had the pleasure of interviewing: Eli Brown. After struggling with his own mental health and addiction issues, in 2016 Eli Brown founded Shine The Light On, a clothing company designed to bring awareness and a voice to those struggling with mental illness. At just twenty-two years old, he founded STLO with one goal in mind: to shift the paradigm and redirect the conversation from reducing stigma to acceptance. The powerful, signature t-shirt designs with simple but positive messages such as “Normal Is Boring” debuted in just seven stores across Canada, but can now be found online and in 500 stores across Canada and the US.</em></p>
