“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes… including you.” – Anne Lamott

This Labor Day, let’s honor not only the hard work that keeps our communities thriving, but also the importance of rest, balance, and our health.

💙 Today, remember:
- Rest is productive.
- Your value is not only in what you do, but in who you are.
- Self-care is one of the best ways to care for those around you.

From all of us at Acadiana Area Human Services District, we wish you a lovely Labor Day ❤⚜

“The Easter eggs symbolize our ability to break out of the hardened, protective shell we've surrounded ourselves with that limits our thoughts and beliefs. As we break open our hearts and minds, we discover a transformation to new, life enhancing thoughts and beliefs.” — Siobhan Shaw

This Easter, we reflect on the idea of renewal - not just spiritually, but emotionally and mentally, too.

Easter reminds us that there’s always hope, even after the darkest of days. In behavioral health, we see this truth every day. That healing is possible, that progress (however small) matters, and that grace is something we can extend to ourselves as well as others.

Whether you're in a season of joy or walking through something heavy, you're not alone. Recovery, healing, growth don't always look like a sunrise, but they move us forward just the same.

Here’s to second chances, to quiet strength, and to the courage it takes to begin again. Happy Easter, Acadiana. 💛
