September is Su***de Prevention Month—a time to raise awareness, share resources, and remind one another that hope is always within reach.

Every Kansan can play a role in preventing su***de and supporting those who are struggling. By starting conversations, offering support, and connecting people with resources, we can make a difference.

If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available 24/7: dial 988 to connect with the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

💛 Together, we can prevent su***de. Together, we can bring more hope to Kansas.

Grief isn’t only about losing someone.

You can grieve:
– A relationship that changed
– A version of yourself you had to let go
– Missed milestones
– A dream that didn’t work out
– The life you had before trauma, illness, or loss

Grief shows up in many forms—and it’s all valid.

There’s no “right” timeline or process.

Today, we honor all kinds of grief. And we want you to know: you don’t have to carry it alone.

💛 If you’re struggling, help is available.
📞 Call or text 988 for free, 24/7 mental health support.

A simple reminder for young minds—and the parents, caregivers, and educators who walk alongside them.

Your words matter. Your presence matters. Keep showing up, listening, and reminding them they’re never alone. 💛

08/21/2025

Sometimes, these simple words can be exactly what a young person needs to hear. 💬💛

Whether you’re a parent, teacher, coach, or friend—your words carry power. When young people feel heard, seen, and supported, they’re more likely to open up and seek help when they need it.

Supporting young minds doesn’t require having all the answers. It starts with listening, showing up, and reminding them they’re not alone.

08/19/2025

Even one young person struggling without the care they need is one too many.

According to the CDC, 1 in 5 adolescents (ages 12–17) reported unmet healthcare needs between 2021 and 2023.

No one should fall through the cracks. Let’s keep pushing for access, understanding, and support—because every young mind matters. 💛

08/13/2025

The start of a new school year can bring more than just academic pressure. It can impact your child’s mental health, too.

Keep an eye out for:
– Mood or energy changes
– Sleep or appetite shifts
– Withdrawing from friends or interests

If something feels off, trust your instincts. 💛

Help is out there for you and your child—call or text 988 anytime for free, confidential support.

08/11/2025

Friendship does more than teach social skills—it plays a vital role in your child’s mental health.
Having just one trusted friend can help reduce loneliness and boost resilience.

Encourage kindness and open conversations this school year. 💛
