The Nina and Ryan Day Resilience Fund will help Ohio State fund research into mental health and creating preventive strategies to help people maintain mental wellness.
Less than 24 hours before the Ohio State football team begins its 2022 preseason camp, Ryan Day held a press conference for a different reason on Wednesday.
“Supporting mental health services and ending the stigma around mental illness are causes that are very dear to our heart,” Ryan Day said Wednesday. “Ohio State has been very good to our family, and we feel that investing in the mental wellness of Buckeye Nation is a tremendous privilege and the right thing to do. Nina and I know from our own experiences what a great difference mental health care can make in the life of someone who is hurting.
“The bad news is that 10-20% of people after a trauma or after stress fall to an illness. But 70-80% actually do pretty well. What we need to figure out is, what are those people who are in the 80% doing that could help the 10-20% who are falling ill? We need to shift this idea of focusing not on why people get sick, but more on why people stay well. I think that's a major shift in our field. Because our field has always been about illness and negativity and all these things.
“Ohio State has been very good to our family, and we feel that investing in the mental wellness of Buckeye Nation is a tremendous privilege and the right thing to do.”Beyond their financial support, Johnson and Wexner Medical Center chief clinical officer Andrew Thomas also lauded the Days on Wednesday for helping to break the stigmas often associated with mental health.
