Step Forward Together
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and this year, FEAP wants to support our University's work to be a place where we know it is ok and are comfortable talking about mental health. We're calling our initiative around this "Step Forward Together."
We all want to help each other, but it can be tricky to know what to say or do when someone is having a hard time with their mental health. As part of Mental Health Awareness Month, "Step Forward Together" will:
- Teach us about the mental health support and resources we have
- Help us feel like it's alright to reach out for mental health support
- Show that having mental health struggles is normal and nothing to be ashamed of
By launching this initiative during Mental Health Awareness Month, we aim to highlight the importance of mental well-being and encourage open conversations about mental health. Overall, the mission of "Step Forward Together" is for FEAP to break down stigma and nurture a mentally healthy culture at our University not just in May, but throughout the year.
