Hi there, although I'm from New Zealand they are running an ongoing campaign to help every day people understand mental illness, depression and how to be supportive of family and friends who may be suffering.. The site is called the lowdown and it is very helpful.
www.thelowdown.co.nz even though I know this is a NZ site, I believe it can also be useful as a broader tool, or even a good starting point. I hope this helps
