Suicide Awareness | Posted 9/13/24
September is suicide awareness month and today marks the end of suicide prevention week. This is a time to raise awareness of the urgently important crisis of suicide. We use this month to shift public perception, spread hope and share vital information to people affected by suicide. Our goal is ensuring that students, friends, and families have access to the resources they need to discuss suicide prevention and to seek help. If you would like to show your support, please stop outside Ms. Elliott's office today to take a wristband or ribbon.
Stress Awareness Month | Posted 4/4/24
Stress Awareness Month has been held every April since 1992 to raise awareness of the causes and cures for our modern-day stress epidemic. Stress and poor mental health are one of the biggest public health challenges that we’re facing. Sadly, even though that is the case, we are still not taking its impact seriously enough. We continue to separate mental health from physical health and vice versa. The reality is they cannot be separate – they are two sides of the same coin. There is no health without mental health and stress can lead to numerous health problems (https://www.stress.org.uk/national-stress-awareness-month).
It's critical to recognize what stress and anxiety look like, take steps to build resilience, and know where to go for help. Mental Health America (MHA) provides some tips on how to reduce your stress by utilizing a Stress Screener. Also, take some time to visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website and familiarize yourself with strategies for stress management (https://hr.nih.gov/working-nih/civil/national-stress-awareness-month).
