May is Mental Health Awareness Month, an annual observance founded by Mental Health America in 1949, to highlight the importance of mental wellbeing, educate the public, reduce stigma and promote support for those affected by mental health conditions. Thank you to all our mental health providers throughout our district and community. It is okay to not be okay. Let's try to have more good days together.
