Mental Health Awareness Month

May is Mental Health Awareness Month! Mental health refers to our emotional and social well-being and impacts how we think, feel and behave. Our mental health plays a role in relationships with others, making decisions, handling stress and activities in everyday life.

This month serves as a reminder to check in with yourself and your loved ones. If your student is struggling with mental health challenges, discuss the resources available to them at their school. Additional resources to help students thrive socially and emotionally are available online and by phone:
