Friend, help is a phone call, text, or chat away. 🤗

It's okay to put yourself first. Taking care of your mental health isn't selfish, it's necessary. 💙

If you need someone to talk to, you can always call or text the 988 Lifeline or chat with a caring counselor online at 988lifeline.org. You don't have to go through this alone.

Recently, we attended the New and Expectant Moms Event at the Arkansas Children’s Southwest Little Rock Clinic! 🏥🤰✨ Our team was on-site providing:

• Important health screenings to ensure moms are staying healthy during and after pregnancy. 🩺❤️
• WIC enrollment to help families access the WIC Program for essential nutrition and support. 🍎🥦

We are so grateful to work with incredible partners like the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance, Baptist Health, and Head Start. 🤝

Together, we provided the services and resources needed to help Arkansas babies and families get a healthy start in life! 👶🏾

Thank you, Arkansas Children's Southwest Little Rock Clinic for the opportunity to serve! 💙

We love investing in the next generation of healthcare leaders! 🩺✨

Recently, we were back in action with the Arkansas Department of Health’s Chronic Disease department and the Lyon College School of Nursing to continue our impactful partnership. 🤝🎓

Meeting people where they are is what we do best! 🚐💨 We spent the day in the Lowe’s parking lot in Searcy (White County), providing the community with important health screenings, health education, and other tools they need to stay healthy.

Check out our upcoming stops on our community calendar and come get your health checked.

May the 4th be with you AND the power of learning CPR.🫀

The power to save a life doesn’t take years of Jedi training. Just learn the two steps of Hands-Only CPR.

If you see a teen or adult collapse, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest to the beat of The Imperial March.
