“We don’t heal in isolation, but in community.” ― S. Kelley Harrell

Express Unity and #ExpressYourself by attending/sharing one of San Mateo County’s FREE virtual May Mental Health Awareness Month events listed at bit.ly/2020mham (please note space is limited!).

This week, help put an end to stigma and promote community wellness by expressing unity as part of the mental health movement:

● Create messages of encouragement and hope on your windows with sticky notes to show your support.  Leave positive messages and doodles for your family members, your roommates or yourself! Click here to get started.  Then snap a photo and share it on social media.  

● Take an active role in suicide prevention. Know the signs, find the words and learn how to reach out at www.suicideispreventable.org.

May Mental Health Awareness Month is coordinated by the  Planning Committee and the Office of Diversity and Equity.
