May is Maternal Mental Health Month, and our Family Connects program is here to support! 💚 We recognize that parenting a newborn is fussing hard work (see what we did there?)! 🥴 But taking care of your mental health is as important as caring for your little one. Without you, there’s no way they can survive (literally), so that means you need to take care of yourself too.

We want to (and CAN) help you with the challenges of new parenthood and provide you with a FREE, in-home nurse visit. ✅️
Our nurses provide compassionate care, address your concerns and link you to community resources. 📝 Because your mental health matters, always. 💯

Mayo es el Mes de la Salud Mental Materna y el Condado de Jefferson está aquí para apoyarla con Family Connects! 💚 Reconocemos que criar a un recién nacido es un trabajo duro y una Chilladera (¿ves lo que hicimos allí?). 🥴 Pero cuidar tu salud mental es tan importante como cuidar a tu pequeño. Sin ti, no hay forma de que puedan sobrevivir (literalmente), lo que significa que tú también debes cuidarte.

Queremos (y PODEMOS) ayudarte con los desafíos de la nueva paternidad y brindarte una visita GRATUITA de una enfermera a domicilio. ✅️
Nuestras enfermeras brindan atención compasiva, abordan sus inquietudes y lo vinculan con recursos comunitarios. 📝Porque tu salud mental importa, siempre.

As the weather warms up, mosquitoes start to show up too. ☀️🦟
Even a small amount of standing water can turn into a place where they thrive. Some mosquitoes can carry West Nile virus.

To help protect yourself, remember the 4 Ds:
Use EPA-approved bug spray like DEET, dress in long sleeves and pants, avoid being outside at dusk and dawn and dump out standing water around your home.

Getting started with WIC is worth it! Hear from a mom in Washington about why WIC is important to her family! 💞

“WIC matters to my family because it helps us get the nutrients we need for our meals. As a new family of 3, it helped us have a well-balanced diet. It also helped us not indulge in unhealthy foods. It helped us to get the proper foods we need over the past year for our son. This included formula, baby food, produce, any and all food from each stage of our son’s eating journey! Our family really enjoys WIC!”
-WIC mom from Washington and member of the Swinomish Tribe

¡Vale la pena inscribirse en WIC! Una madre de Washington nos cuenta por qué WIC es importante para su familia. 💞

“WIC es muy importante para mi familia porque nos ayuda a acceder a los nutrientes que necesitamos para nuestras comidas. Como familia nueva de 3 integrantes, nos sirvió de mucho su ayuda para llevar una dieta bien equilibrada y evitar consumir alimentos poco saludables. Nos ayudó a obtener los alimentos adecuados que necesitamos para nuestro hijo durante el año pasado, como leche de fórmula, alimentos para bebés, frutas y verduras frescas y todos los alimentos en cada etapa de su alimentación. ¡A nuestra familia le encanta WIC!”

Think STIs only happen if someone has multiple partners? That’s a common myth.

Anyone who is sexually active can get an STI. Many STIs also don’t cause symptoms, so people may not know they have one from a previous partner.

Testing and protection are simple ways to take care of your health and your partner’s health. If you’re sexually active, STI testing is something everyone should think about. 🧪www.jeffco.us/sexual-health
----
¿Piensas que las infecciones de transmisión sexual (ITS) solo pasan si alguien tiene varias parejas? Eso es un mito.

Cualquier persona sexualmente activa puede contraer una ITS. Muchas ITS no tienen síntomas, por lo que alguien podría no saber que la tiene por una pareja anterior.

Hacerse pruebas y usar protección son formas fáciles de cuidar tu salud y la de tu pareja. Si eres sexualmente activo, hacerse pruebas de ITS es algo que todos deberían considerar. 🧪

We’re excited to share something we helped make happen with community grant funding this past year.

Through our 2025 Food System Resilience Small Grants Program, our Food Systems team supported a project led by Rolling R Farm & Ranch, in partnership with Mountain Resource Center (MRC) and the Hispanic Culinary Institute. This work helped expand local chicken processing right here on the Front Range. 🐔

Together, they raised and processed chicken in our community, then worked with culinary students to turn it into ready-to-eat meals for neighbors served by Mountain Resource Center.

This is what that kind of support can do. It helps local farms grow, gets healthy meals to people who need them and builds something that can last. 🌱

We’re proud of the impact this work is having across our community. ▶ Watch the video created by MRC to see it come together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qKg5kw1dis
