Today, we pause.
We remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, the heroes who ran toward the danger, and the unity that carried us through the darkest of days.

9/11 isn’t just a date in history.. it’s a reminder of resilience, sacrifice, and the weight of never forgetting.

To those we lost, to those who survived, and to those who still carry the pain… we will never forget.

When we take behavior personally, we risk missing the bigger picture.

Behavior doesn’t happen to upset us—it happens because, at some point, it worked. It achieved a goal, met a need, or got a response.

When we shift from taking it personally to understanding the “why,” we open the door to real change.

International Youth Day is celebrated around the world every year on August 12. The United Nations’ goal is to give youth a voice in how communities and the future are shaped. In honor of this important day, let’s explore ways to nurture and raise awareness for youth mental health and well-being. 🧒 👟

Quick Stats:
-1 in 7 adolescents are affected by mental illnesses
-50% of mental illnesses begin by age 14

People with mental illnesses can and do lead active, productive lives, showing that these conditions can affect individuals from all backgrounds and walks of life. It’s important to understand that seeking professional help is nothing to be ashamed of. Everyone deserves the support they need to thrive.

Pride Month exists to honor and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, recognize their struggles and achievements, and promote equality and inclusion. It’s held every June to commemorate the Stonewall Uprising of June 1969 in New York City—a pivotal event in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights.

Here’s why Pride Month matters:
1. Visibility and Representation: It helps LGBTQ+ people feel seen, heard, and valued, especially in societies where they’ve been marginalized or erased.
2. Awareness and Education: Pride raises awareness of ongoing issues like discrimination, mental health disparities, and legal inequality.
3. Celebration of Identity: It’s a time for people to embrace who they are without fear or shame—encouraging authenticity, joy, and solidarity.
4. Honoring History and Progress: It pays tribute to activists and community members who fought—and continue to fight—for equal rights.
5. Community and Support: Pride events foster a sense of belonging and shared purpose, helping many LGBTQ+ individuals and allies feel less alone.

In short: Pride Month is both a celebration and a call to action, rooted in a history of resistance and a vision for a more inclusive future.
