September may be Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, but the conversation doesn’t end here.

We are dedicated to being a voice that shouts louder than the of lies depression and su***de. Every life matters, and we fight for each one, every single day.

💬As Dr. Mary Harris says in this video, "You are not the only one. And even if you were the only one, we would still be there."

Remember to check in on each other, spread kindness, and remind the person next to you that they are never alone.💙

💭A message of hope from Michelle Rampino, one of the amazing therapists in our organization.

This Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, we are highlighting the power of community. Remember, it's okay to have someone hold onto hope until you're ready to take it back.

You don't have to carry everything on your own – lean on community, lean on friends and family, and lean on us. No matter how dark or hopeless things feel, it's possible to get better.💙

April is National Counseling Awareness Month, a time to recognize and celebrate the incredible work counselors do across the nation. In honor of this month our Chief Operating Officer Maggie Tapp, who is also a mental health clinician, has recorded a video to recognize the importance of counseling professionals. We invite you all to watch and share while taking a moment to celebrate the powerful impact counseling has in our lives.

These professionals dedicate their lives to supporting, uplifting, and empowering individuals, families, and communities through some of their most challenging times. These team members provide hope when things feel hopeless and help us all find more peace and joy in life. This month, we not only highlight the vital role counselors play in our mental health and well-being but also encourage everyone to acknowledge and appreciate their hard work and commitment.

A huge THANK YOU to all of our counselors and the counselors in our communities who dedicate their lives to guiding, supporting, and empowering others. The impact you have on your community can not be understated! 💖
