🌎💔 With so much happening—from ICE deportation headlines to flooding en Central Texas—nuestros niños are feeling it too.

Here are 5 simple ways to help our niños feel a little más tranquilos y apoyados:

1️⃣ Talk about it – Don’t ignore it. Hablen con calma y con corazón.
2️⃣ Ask questions – Let them express cómo se sienten.
3️⃣ Take a break from the news – Too much info can overwhelm.
4️⃣ Be kind – Acts of kindness help kids feel empowered.
5️⃣ Remind them they’re not alone – Y tú tampoco estás solo/a 💛

A little connection goes a long way. Let’s protect their peace while we work toward a more just and caring world.

🧠💙July is Minority Mental Health Month — a time to celebrate la cultura, uplift our voices, and push for mental health care que nos entienda de verdad.

The Cannenta Center believes healing should be culturally-sensitive y con corazón. Because language, identity, y nuestras experiencias matter when it comes to mental wellness.

This month, let’s break the stigma, build community, and remind each other that nuestra salud mental sí importa.

Juneteenth is a moment to honor the strength and resilience of Black communities—and to hold space for the joy, pain, progress, and continued struggle woven into that legacy.

At Cannenta Center, we know healing is personal, but it’s also collective. We recognize the weight of generational trauma and the power of reclaiming rest, joy, and wholeness. On this day—and every day—we stand committed to creating space for reflection, restoration, and liberation.
