SUMMARY Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of education of the fight against stigma on mental illness to headmen as leaders of public. Methods: This study was a pretest-posttest study without a control group. Individual Identification Form and Beliefs Toward Mental Illness Scale which was validated by Bilge and Cam (2008), and Scale of The Community Attitudes Towards The Mentally Illness which was validated in the study by Bag and Ekinci (2005) were used as data collection tools. After ethics committee approval was obtained and the necessary permissions were taken from the institution the study was performed. The scales were administered before education and again after education of the fight against stigma. Results: It was found that 72.2% of headmen rarely met individuals with mental and psychological problems and 66.7% of them didn’t take action to individuals with mental problems. 33.3% of headmen expressed the first mental illness had come back to their mind as ‘insane, mental alienation, lunacy’. Statistical significant differences were found on the Goodwill Subscale between average points before and after education (Z=-2.350, p=0.019). The Community Mental Health Ideology Subscale had higher average points, and Shame Subscale had lower average points after education.
