We’re heartbroken by the recent news that federal funding was cut for The Trevor Project, a critical mental health and crisis support resource for LGBTQ+ youth. This move sends a dangerous message at a time when our young people need care and community the most. At The Child & Family Wellness Center, we are standing firm in our values. We will always be a safe space for LGBTQ+ youth and families.

As we wrap up Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re reflecting on what it means to care for ourselves beyond the calendar.

We had the honor of being featured on The Hub Today to share simple, everyday ways to support mental wellness and we’re bringing that energy into every season:

🧠 Therapy is care just like a doctor’s visit
🧠 Small steps matter a walk, a breath, a journal page
🧠 Check in with your strong friends and with yourself

Mental health isn’t just about crisis it’s about maintenance, community, and compassion.

Black history is everywhere, even in the shows we grew up on! 📺

Did you know that Dr. Chester Pierce, a Black psychiatrist, helped shape Sesame Street? He made sure Black children saw themselves in a positive and empowering way on TV. The show’s community, culture, and representation were inspired by Harlem and built to uplift all children.

Learning Black history is not just about the past. It helps us understand who we are, where we come from, and how we grow together. It also strengthens our mental health by building pride, connection, and resilience.
