Letâs continue to break the stigma by having honest conversations and showing up with compassion.
You do not have to suffer in silence. This month is a reminder that you are not alone, and itâs okay to ask for help.
If you are experiencing a #mentalhealth emergency, call 911 or visit your local hospital. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, mobile crisis teams are available to meet you in the community and provide support.
