Please join us in congratulating our latest Game Changers: Chenequa Hubbard, Keshaydra Cunningham, Amelia Copeland, and Calena Brown! 🥳

While all four of these wonderful ladies work in different programs (Red Hill, ESG, BHFit, and Supported Employment), they were all nominated by their same supervisor for their consistent dedication to the individuals they serve - many of which are residents of our rural counties.

We are so thankful to have these four on our team!

The 988 Su***de and Crisis Hotline can not only help when you are going through a behavioral health crisis, but also when someone you love is as well. Here's some warning signs that a loved one may be at a higher risk of su***de:

* Talking about wanting to die or to kill themselves
* Looking for a way to kill themselves, like searching online or buying a weapon
* Talking about feeling hopeless or having no reason to live
* Talking about feeling trapped or in unbearable pain
* Talking about being a burden to others
* Increasing the use of alcohol or drugs
* Acting anxious or agitated; behaving recklessly
* Sleeping too little or too much
* Withdrawing or isolating themselves
* Showing rage or talking about seeking revenge
* Extreme mood swings

If you or someone you know is experiencing these warning signs, you can call or text 988 to be connected with a live behavioral health professional 24/7.

You are not alone, and hope is on the horizon.
