🌸 A big shoutout to our very own Sherry Ratajczak, one of our amazing Home Visitation Workers in Union, MO! 🌸

This past Saturday, Sherry had the opportunity to join Your Other Mother and several local agencies for a special community baby shower in Union. Each organization created a gift basket for guests to win, and Sherry went above and beyond by putting together a truly beautiful basket. She also spent most of her Saturday helping with setup and being present at the event—representing LFCS with warmth, dedication, and care. 💜

We are so proud of Sherry and grateful for the way she serves families and our community every day. Please join us in celebrating her hard work and the difference she continues to make! 👏✨

All month long, LFCS will be sharing some of the most common myths about su***de — and the facts that can save lives. Together, we can break the stigma, promote understanding, and encourage open, compassionate conversations about mental health.

If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of su***de or self-harm, please reach out for help immediately. Trained professionals are available 24/7 at the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline — just call or text 988.

You are not alone. 💛

💚 Wellness Is... Investing in a Healthy Family 💚
As we wrap up our Wellness Is… series for National Wellness Month, we’re closing with a powerful reminder: wellness begins at home. Investing in your family's wellness creates a strong foundation for emotional, physical, and social wellbeing.

Here is our family wellness checklist to help you nurture wellness through your family life:
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Connect with one another uniquely – Spend time together, share your interests, and look for ways to get involved in your community.
🧘‍♀️ Care for yourself while caring for others – Create daily routines, ask for help when needed, and make space for rest and hobbies.
🚶‍♂️ Be active together – Move more as a family. Go for walks, play outside, or join a fitness class together.
🍎 Create healthy habits at home – Eat meals together, limit screen time, and make healthy choices easy and fun.
💬 Strengthen bonds with your children – Encourage, listen, and be present. Show up for the moments that matter.
💞 Foster healthy relationships – Communicate with kindness, set respectful boundaries, and resolve conflicts with care.

Thank you for joining us this month as we explored what wellness can look like in everyday life. When we care for ourselves and each other, we all grow stronger.

At LFCS, we know that those in social services have some of the biggest hearts—always showing up for others, often putting their own needs last. But during National Wellness Month, we want to remind our staff (and others in the helping professions) that you matter too.

Wellness isn’t just something we prescribe for our clients—it’s something we actively promote for our staff. Because when the helpers are supported, appreciated, and balanced, everyone benefits.

That’s why LFCS encourages:
✅ Setting healthy limits and boundaries
✅ Taking time off and mental breaks
✅ A space for emotional care and growth in your daily routines
✅ Promoting professional development and career wellbeing
✅ A work culture rooted in compassion—for others and ourselves

💙 This month, and every month, we celebrate the dedicated people behind the scenes—because helping them thrive is essential to helping others heal.
