Mental Health Awareness Month

Mental Health Matters

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a national movement to raise awareness and support your mental health DAILY. Mental health struggles affect people of all backgrounds and abilities, and seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Throughout May, join your NCFAED colleagues as we work together to break the stigma and advocate for a workplace culture that supports people with mental illness and their families. 

From May 1st – May 31st, 2023, We highly encourage all NCFAED members to take advantage of the resources available to strengthen their resilience and nurture their mental fitness. Don't miss out on this opportunity to prioritize your mental health. 

Highlights and resources:

• On Wellness Wednesdays, we encourage you to wear green to support the cause.

• There are extensive resources available at the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Website.

• Federal Occupational Health (FOH) is currently spotlighting "31 Days, 31 Ways to Improve Your Mental Health," offering daily mental health self-care tips.
