As we’re mid-way thru Suicide Prevention Week, we realize it can be a heavy topic so we want to check in with ya’ll and hopefully bring some smiles 😁
In honor of @rezdogsfx receiving 4 Emmy nominations, we bring you the Reservation Dogs Wellness Meter! It’s important to check in with yourself from time to time and ask, “How am I feeling today?”. It’s ok to feel sad, and it’s also ok to feel happy….. The most important part is acknowledging these feelings and processing them in a healthy/safe way. So, how are you feeling on this beautiful day?
Here are some other helpful resources that can help with your wellness check: text CARING to 65664, text NATIVE to 741741.

It’s National HIV Testing Day! Knowing your status can help you stay healthy, get treatment, and protect others.
Text NATIVETEST to 555251 to get a FREE Rapid HIV Self-Test kit.
Today is National Self Love Day!
Self-love is the best love and before you can love another, you must love yourself. Before Jimmy put the Chuska Warriors on his back, he had to find self-love and it radiated towards his team and community.
It’s easier said than done though and a great start is waking up every morning and simply saying, “I love myself.” Plus we always got your back! If you’d like daily reminders of how awesome you are, text the word “CARING” to 65664
Relatives! ValentiMes Day is 3 sleeps away and we got your back if you’re still looking for that “cuddle buddy”..... UGGLLLYYYYY lol 😆.
Use our Snag app to find that special Auntie or Uncle.
Whatever your plans, please be safe, ask consent, respect your partner, and use protection 😉

🌹 Roses are a commemorated flower - generations of its teachings and medicines are woven cross-culturally across the world.
🌹 Roses are beautiful, soft, and elegant.
But these are not the only lessons roses teach us. Their thorns are a reminder of the strength and endurance that comes naturally with grace and tenderness.
🌹 Rose stands powerful in this balance.
