While the holidays are a time of joy and cheer, they can also be a time when feelings of grief or loss rise up. Certain traditions may be different now, so make sure to honor your emotions and adapt your holiday celebrations to help you feel connected to the past while calmly accepting the present. If you find yourself experiencing a mental health crisis, call or text 988. Artwork credit to .

While it may not feel like it today, winter snow is likely just around the corner! Make sure you're prepared for safe snow play by dressing in layers, wearing sunscreen and staying hydrated. Before big winter storms, check your emergency supplies for non-perishable food for all members of the family (including pets), first aid kit, and important medications.

This week, MCT honors those who have served in the military. Unfortunately, many veterans suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) after their return from service. This disorder causes hyperactivity in certain areas of the brain, and can bring extreme distress for the veteran and their loved ones. Please reach out to the Veterans Crisis Line at 1-800-273-8255 if you or someone you know is affected by PTSD symptoms. Artwork credit to
