SUMMARY:May: Asian American\, Native Hawaiian\, Pacific Islander Heritage Month\, Jewish American Heritage Month\, Mental Health Awareness Month\, National Foster Care Awareness Month
DESCRIPTION:Asian American\, Native Hawaiian\, Pacific Islander Heritage Month\nJewish American Heritage Month\n Mental Health Awareness Month \nAs we celebrate Mental Health Awareness this May\, there are a few things to be thinking about: \n\nOur mental health may be impacted by life changes that come with aging.\n\nMaintaining involvement is beneficial to mental health\, particularly as we age. To feel involved and connected\, it might be beneficial to strengthen your relationships with family and friends\, join a social club\, or volunteer for a cause that matters to you. A fresh hobby\, learning something new\, or pushing oneself with brainteasers are all beneficial ways to maintain mental sharpness. Visit SAHMSA for resources for older adults to learn more. \n\nYouth can establish a solid foundation for lifetime well-being with the help of resources\, communities\, and supportive families.\n\nMaking an effort to converse and listen to your kids and teenagers can support their healthy mental development. Positive and consistent relationships have a positive impact on a child’s mental health. Make sure to watch out for any changes in your children and teens behavior or social skills. SAMHSA has resources for parents and care givers. \n\nFor those who are pregnant or have recently given birth\, pregnancy and childbirth can be memorable but also bring up a range of intense emotions.\n\nWhile being pregnant is a beautiful thing\, it can also be emotionally complex. It’s okay to not feel okay. Anxiety\, feeling overwhelmed\, and mood changes are all common. If you’re struggling\, you’re not alone! SAMHSA has resources available to support your mental health journey. \n\nEveryone deserves to receive respectful and culturally sensitive care.\n\nMental health is for everyone\, and everyone deserves mental health support when they need it. Its important minority groups are getting the proper mental health care that makes sure their values\, traditions\, and experiences are being supported. SAMHSA has resources for multiple minority groups like tribal communities\, Black communities\, and resources available in Spanish. \n\nLGBTQIA+ community members’ mental health can be supported by inclusive families\, schools\, and societies.\n\nWe celebrate #LGBTQIA+ communities throughout Mental Health Awareness Month by reminding them that they belong. You are important. How you feel matters. You are not alone! If you are in crisis\, the 988 lifeline is there for you 24/7. \nVisit SAMHSA’s Mental Health Awareness Month Toolkit for ways to spread awareness! www.samhsa.gov/mental-health-awareness-month/toolkit \nNational Foster Care Awareness Month \nEvery May\, the United States celebrates National Foster Care Awareness Month. Its a time to honor the people and institutions that support foster parents\, social workers\, activists and children and youth in foster care\, as well as to raise awareness of their experiences. With the goal to positively impact the lives of children and families involved in the foster care system\, National Foster Care Awareness month is essential for increasing awareness\, encouraging advocacy\, and raising support. \nInterested in foster care? Visit this link to see some frequently asked questions: \nHere are a few ways to get involved\, support\, and make a difference: \n\nSpread the Word. Share information about becoming a foster parent in-person and on social media!\nEducate. Educate yourself and others on the foster care system and bills!\nVolunteer. Explore volunteer opportunities that impact youth receiving foster care services!\n\n

SUMMARY:June: Food Insecurity Awareness Month\, Pride Month\, PTSD Awareness Month
DESCRIPTION:Food Insecurity Awareness Month\nPride Month\nPride Month is important because it’s a time to celebrate acceptance\, love\, resiliency\, and creating a more compassionate world! It’s an annual celebration that got its roots from the Stonewall riots back in June 1969. The Stonewall Uprising served as a turning moment in the American Gay Liberation Movement. This month honors and demonstrates the global advancement of the LGBTQ+ community\, as well as serves as a reminder of the hardships the community has faced in achieving equality and acceptance and gives people a chance to proudly express who they are. It draws attention to the difficulties and prejudices that the community faces. More significantly\, though\, Pride Month creates community building\, educating\, and advocacy while providing a platform for empowerment and belonging. \nImportance of Pride Month: \nVisibility and representation \nCommunity and support \nEducation and Awareness \nCelebration of diversity \nLearn more: \nhttps://www.history.com/topics/gay-rights/pride-month \nhttps://www.papyrus-uk.org/why-pride-month-is-still-needed/ \nPTSD Awareness Month

SUMMARY:Massachusetts Emancipation Day (Quock Walker Day)
DESCRIPTION:“On Saturday\, July 8\,  the Commonwealth of Massachusetts celebrated its first Quock Walker Day\, also known as Massachusetts Emancipation Day\, commemorating the end of slavery in Massachusetts. \nIn 1781\, Walker challenged his own enslavement in court\, arguing that slavery went against both the Bible and the state constitution. His case eventually led to Massachusetts being one of the first states to abolish slavery. \nTo learn more about the story of Quock Walker and how the day came to be\, The Lexington Observer sat down with Sean Osborne\, cofounder of the Association of Black Citizens of Lexington and a historian who helped raise the awareness about Quock Walker’s role in American history.” \nRead more of this article from the Lexington Observer.

DESCRIPTION:Hispanic-Latinx Heritage Month\nNational Recovery Month\nThe purpose of National Recovery Month is to raise awareness of the journey to recovery from substance use disorders and mental health issues. This month is a great time to remember to be inspired\, empowered\, and hopeful. It offers an environment for recognizing the successes and milestones of those in recovery as well as celebrating their resiliency and strength. In addition to increasing public awareness of the success of treatment and support services\, National Recovery Month inspires people to ask for assistance without worrying about being judged.

This month offers a chance to de-stigmatize discussions about mental health and suicide\, promoting knowing when to communicate with someone who might be suffering and the ability to identify behaviors that indicate a need for support. It highlights the importance of early intervention\, easily available resources\, and networks of support for individuals experiencing suicidal thoughts or actions. Moreover\, Suicide Prevention Month serves as a time to honor those who have lost their lives to suicide and to emphasize the significance of prevention. Ultimately\, the focus of this month is on raising awareness of suicide and teaching people how to prevent it. \nImportance of Suicide Prevention Month: \nRaising awareness \nPromoting resources and support \nEducating \nAdvocacy \nhonoring \nLearn more: \nhttps://www.samhsa.gov/newsroom/observances/suicide-prevention-month \n
