We would never tell someone with a broken leg that they should stop wallowing and get it together. We don’t consider taking medication for an ear infection something to be ashamed of. We shouldn’t treat mental health conditions any differently.” Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It’s about how you drive not where you’re going..❤️

🧼✋ Back-to-School = Back to Handwashing!

Now that the school year is in full swing, it’s the perfect time to remind your kids to wash their hands often—especially after recess, before lunch, and when they get home.

A fun tip? 🎵 Have them sing the “Happy Birthday” song twice while scrubbing to make sure they’re washing long enough to keep germs away!

Let’s keep those hands clean and those smiles healthy all school year! 💙🐸
