Get a jumpstart on your Mental Health Month plans this May with new resources from NMHA. This
year’s theme, “MIND Your Health,” focuses on the mind/body connection and mental health in the
workplace, and features brand new materials packed with cutting-edge research.
Here’s a quick preview of what some NMHA affiliates are organizing this year:
- The MHA of Middle Tennessee will host a huge “Kid’s Day” at a local zoo for 3,000 local children,
to educate them about mental health and related issues.
- Among other activities, the MHA of the
District of Columbia has joined with the Older Women’s League to conduct depression
screenings for older adults as a part of Older
Americans’ Mental Health Week (May 22-28).
- The MHA of Northern Kentucky will hold a series of luncheons with local businesses to educate workers about the importance of
mental health.
