💡Major depression affects over 21 million American adults each year, making it one of the most common mental illnesses, according to Mental Health America. ​

This Depression Awareness Month, we encourage you open the conversation with a loved one, check in on friends, and tell someone you love them. ​

Breaking the stigma and fostering a culture that supports those who are struggling starts with each of us. No one should ever feel alone. ​

Make someone smile today!​💙

International Pronouns Day seeks to make respecting, sharing, and educating about personal pronouns commonplace. Today, we reaffirm our commitment to fostering a respectful and inclusive environment.

Recognizing and using an individual's pronouns is basic to human dignity. Being referred to the wrong pronouns particularly affects our transgender and gender nonconforming community members. Together, we can educate, share, and celebrate diverse, intersecting identities.🌟🌈

April is National Counseling Awareness Month, a time to recognize and celebrate the incredible work counselors do across the nation. In honor of this month our Chief Operating Officer Maggie Tapp, who is also a mental health clinician, has recorded a video to recognize the importance of counseling professionals. We invite you all to watch and share while taking a moment to celebrate the powerful impact counseling has in our lives.

These professionals dedicate their lives to supporting, uplifting, and empowering individuals, families, and communities through some of their most challenging times. These team members provide hope when things feel hopeless and help us all find more peace and joy in life. This month, we not only highlight the vital role counselors play in our mental health and well-being but also encourage everyone to acknowledge and appreciate their hard work and commitment.

A huge THANK YOU to all of our counselors and the counselors in our communities who dedicate their lives to guiding, supporting, and empowering others. The impact you have on your community can not be understated! 💖
