May is Mental Health Month

From Mental Health First Aid USA

May is Mental Health Month — a time when all of us in the behavioral health field and beyond share resources and stories to raise public awareness about mental health and substance use challenges.

This year, Mental Health First Aid USA is taking the opportunity to spread information on social media about how mental illness and addiction affect some key populations — and what we ALL can do to help. Because anyone, anywhere can be the difference for someone facing a mental health or substance use challenge.

Feel free to re-purpose and share these infographics with your networks. And make sure you follow Mental Health First Aid on Twitter to see more of what we're doing in recognition of Mental Health Month.
P.S. Stay tuned for a special announcement from Mental Health First Aid USA at the end of the month. You won't want to miss it!
