Mental Health Awareness Week!

🧠💚 May 4–10 is Mental Health Awareness Week!
This week is dedicated to raising awareness about mental health, breaking down stigma, and advocating for greater access to care and support. Mental health is health — and everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive.

Let’s use this time to check in with ourselves, reach out to loved ones, and continue pushing for systems that prioritize mental well-being.
Together, we can create a future where mental health is seen, valued, and supported.
