August is Family Fun Month

Family dinners aren’t just about food, they’re about connection, comfort, and creating a safe space for teens to open up.

During Family Fun Month, let’s bring the importance of shared meals to the table, literally.

Studies show that teens who eat with family regularly are less likely to feel hopeless. Small moments make a big difference.

If you or someone you know needs support, Dial 988 or message “Got5” to 741741, because healing starts with one brave step.
