"Unlock the Power of Your Surroundings: Get Ready for Mental Health Month 2023 with Free Toolkit"
Updated: Apr 7
As the month of May approaches, Mental Health America (MHA) is excited to announce the release of its highly anticipated 2023 May is Mental Health Month toolkit. As a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting mental health, MHA aims to raise awareness and provide practical resources on how to support one's mental health and the health of those in the community.
This year's theme is "Look Around, Look Within." The environment we live in, work in, and play in has a significant impact on our mental health. It is important to consider the effects of our surroundings on our well-being. The toolkit provides practical resources on how to support your mental health and the health of those in your community.
The toolkit contains fact sheets, worksheets, sample communications materials, and sample social media. It covers three main topics: what is a mentally healthy and safe space, how to change your surroundings to support your mental health, and what to do if you can't control or change something unhealthy about your surroundings.
Mental Health America and its affiliates have observed May as Mental Health Month since 1949. Through the media, local events, and screenings, millions of people have been reached. This year, MHA invites everyone to join in the effort by downloading the toolkit and taking the first step towards improving mental health.
In conclusion, mental health is an essential aspect of our overall well-being, and it's important to take care of it. The 2023 May is Mental Health Month toolkit provides practical resources to support mental health, and we encourage everyone to download it and take action. Let's come together to raise awareness and improve mental health in our communities.
