🌻 September is Su***de Awareness Month 🌻

This weekend, Emilie Bardo, Family Empowerment’s Administrative and Financial Specialist, participated in the Out of the Darkness Walk in Atlantic City to honor lives lost, support survivors, and raise awareness for su***de prevention.

The sunflower is a symbol of hope in su***de prevention. It represents warmth, positivity, and the reminder to keep turning toward the light even in difficult times. 🌞

Awareness and community events like these are so important because they bring people together, open conversations about mental health, and remind us that no one has to struggle alone. They help break stigma and show the power of collective support.

If you or someone you know is struggling, support is available.
📞 Call or text 988 – Su***de and Crisis Lifeline
💬 Chat via 988lifeline.org
📱 Reach out to trusted friends, family, or a professional

Together, we can spread hope and save lives. More posts on su***de awareness will be shared throughout the month.

With the school year right around the corner, imposter syndrome might start to creep in 📚💼 Whether you’re a student, teacher, or professional stepping into a new role, that voice that says “you don’t belong” or “you just got lucky”? It’s lying. ❌🧠

Nearly 70% of people will experience imposter syndrome at some point (Clance & Imes, 1985). While it feels isolating, it’s actually a common human experience. You do belong. You earned your spot. Your doubt doesn’t define you 💙✨
