This Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re focusing on breaking the stigma around mental health! Throughout May, we'll be sharing resources, important conversations, and collaborating with community partners to normalize talking about mental health and seeking help! 💚

Mental health stigma can make young people feel like we have to stay silent about what we're going through, but no one should have to struggle alone.

We believe asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Join us this month as we work to create more honest conversations and spaces where youth feel supported.

Let’s break the stigma together.

March is Sources of Strength’s March Mentor Madness! YouthLine is partnering with SoS to talk about the importance of trusted adults and mentors in our lives. Here is one of our amazing YouthLine volunteers talking about her trusted adults and what makes them so important to her.

We know how hard it can be to find an adult that we trust with our thoughts and feelings, but hope that talking about different options can help us think about where we might look in order to find an adult that can be there for us.

Taking care of our minds and bodies isn't always easy. There can be so many demands, expectations, and pressures that make it hard to slow down! Take a second to reflect on these questions and see if there is one small thing you can do to meet your needs in these areas of life. You deserve it 🌟

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month 💙 This month (and every month), we want to recognize that many young people experience sexual violence and remind you that support is out there. You are not alone.

If you or someone you know has been impacted, YouthLine is here to listen and help connect you to resources in your community. You deserve support, care, and to be heard.

You can also find local resources through the National Sexual Violence Resource Center: www.nsvrc.org/find-help/

As we wrap up March and 's March Mentor Madness, we're taking one last moment to reflect on the topic of trusted adults. Here is one more of our peer volunteers talking about who her trusted adult is and why. YouthLine has been super happy to get to partner with SoS to talk about the importance of trusted adults and mentors in our lives. This topic is so important, and even as we wrap up this campaign, we hope to continue the conversation around having a good support system.

We know how hard it can be to find an adult that we trust with our thoughts and feelings, but hope that talking about different options can help us think about where we might look in order to find an adult that can be there for us.
