When kids feel anxious or depressed, it doesn’t always look like sadness — it can show up as irritability, stomachaches, or wanting to be alone. You can’t “fix” their feelings, but you can listen, support, and get help when it’s needed.

If your child is showing signs of anxiety or depression, you’re not alone — help is always available.

As a parent or caregiver, you anticipate and meet your child’s physical needs, such as hunger or tiredness, and are attuned to their mental and emotional needs.

Cultural expectations, family roles, and generational trauma all shape how we talk about (or don’t talk about) mental health.

In last week's episode of "In This Family", Vivien Lee shared her story as a member of Minnesota’s Hmong community and a survivor of trauma, depression, and multiple su***de attempts. Her story is powerful, brave, and deeply important.

For many, speaking up about emotional pain may feel impossible. That’s why crisis support matters. That's why SERCC is here 24/7 — to listen, to support, and to help people stay safe.

Understanding someone’s background can be life-changing in moments of crisis.

At SERCC, we see how trauma and cultural differences impact mental health. Providing support that is culturally aware and trauma-informed helps build trust, make people feel heard, and connect them to the care they need.

For care professionals, providing culturally sensitive, trauma-informed support means taking the time to understand each person’s unique background.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our LivingWorks safeTALK training last week at SERCC!

Led by our Clinical Director, Jaime Swift, this 4-hour training helped community members and social work students from Rochester Community and Technical College - RCTC learn how to recognize when someone may be thinking about su***de and how to connect them with support.

Building a safer, more caring community starts with conversations like these. We’re grateful to learn together.

If you are interested in bringing safeTALK training to your community, contact us at scc-communications@nexusfamilyhealing.org

Being prepared is something you can control. One simple step? Save SERCC’s number in your phone so help is always just a call away.
