January's theme invites us to pause and remember to prioritize self-care in the new year with small, doable habits that support emotional health. 💪

Mental health is influenced by many factors, including work, school, relationships, finances, stress, and physical health. Focusing on one small, positive step each day can help build resilience over time.

For the new year, PBCBHC urges you to prioritize rest, balance, and connection to support emotional wellbeing and mental health in 2026.✨

Recovery looks different for everyone, and support makes a huge difference. Substance Use Disorder Treatment Month aims to raise awareness and more, including:
