May is Mental Health Awareness Month
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to recognize the importance of caring for our emotional wellbeing and supporting one another. In a period when many are feeling the weight of ongoing national and global events, it is important to pause, check in with ourselves and those around us, and remember that support is available.
Throughout May, we will offer a range of opportunities to support mental health and wellbeing, including one-on-one Mental Health Check Ins and opportunities to learn more about how EAP can support you. You can also take advantage of the resources available in our Mental Health Toolbox.
Lastly, we invite you to watch the video above and meet the EAP staff. These individuals are available to provide confidential support and practical resources when they are needed.
Schedule a Mental Health Check-In
Schedule a private virtual meeting with an EAP Counselor to review the impact that stress has on you. You may complete a stress screening, identify how recent and past events are impacting your current emotional state and create a plan to manage and prevent future stress.
Mental health is health. Consistent attention to mentally healthy habits is essential.
