Mental Health Monday 💚 Knowing what to say and what not to say when someone opens up to you about their mental health is crucial to avoid stigmatizing their struggles.
Instead of comments like:
❌"it could be worse"
❌"everyone feels like that sometimes"
Try supportive comments like:
👍"I'm here for you when you need me"
👍"thanks for opening up to me" can go a long way.
See more advice on what to say and come equipped to reduce stigma when supporting your loved ones!

🌞May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month🌞
Skin cancer is one of the most common cancers, but also one of the most preventable. Small daily habits can make a big difference:
• Apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every day
• Wear protective clothing and sunglasses
• Stay in the shade during peak sun hours (10am–4pm)
• Check your skin regularly for any new or changing spots
• Schedule routine skin exams with your healthcare provider
Early detection is key. If you notice something unusual, don’t wait—get it checked.
