October 10th is World Mental Health Day, and today we’re reminded that caring for our mental health is just as important as caring for our physical health. Mental health challenges can affect anyone, and everyone deserves access to the care they need.

The good news is, you don’t have to navigate these challenges alone! The Mental Health Association (MHA) of Essex and Morris County is here with resources and support to help you take the next step toward wellness. Visit mhainspire.org for more information about what programming and support is best for you.

Welcome back to our Day in the Life of an NJ4S Prevention Consultant video series! The staff here at NJ4S Morris-Sussex hope you all had a relaxing and restful summer and are feeling ready to begin another academic year!

Help is always available through the many helplines offered to NJ residents, but navigating a “resource-rich” state like New Jersey can feel overwhelming.
