Montana winters mean long nights and short days. If you have noticed significant changes in your mood and behavior when the seasons change, you may be experiencing seasonal affective disorder (SAD).

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, SAD can often be treated with light therapy, counseling, medication, and vitamin D.

Remember to talk to your healthcare provider before starting any treatment. You can find a list of Benefis providers at Benefis.org/find-a-provider.

We’re grateful for the continued generosity of TETWP (Tough Enough To Wear Pink, Central Montana), whose annual donation to Benefis Foundation marks 12 years of support for patients in our community.

This year, Benefis Foundation received $4,000 as part of a $90,000 in-kind gift distributed across clinics and programs, providing food and gas gift cards to support men and women in central Montana undergoing cancer treatments.

Since their first gift in 2014, TETWP has contributed over $120,000 to Benefis Foundation, making a meaningful difference for patients and families when they need it most. Thank you for your continued partnership and compassion.

Happy National Rural Health Day! Let’s take a moment to celebrate the caring spirit of our community. We rely on our neighbors and friends here in Teton County, whether we slide into the ditch, need ambulance volunteers to get us to the Emergency Department, or just need somebody to check on us when it gets bitterly cold.

Rural communities also come with unique healthcare challenges, and we’re grateful for the community we tackle those challenges with. Thank you to the staff of BTMC, our supporters, and our patients who make it all worthwhile. Let’s make today a healthy one!
