📢 Changes to Medicaid coverage are coming in 2027.

Starting January 1, 2027, some adults ages 19–64 who receive Medicaid will need to meet new work or community engagement requirements to maintain their coverage. Activities such as working, attending school, volunteering, or participating in job training may count toward these requirements. Some individuals will be exempt.

While these changes are not in effect yet, now is a good time to stay informed and make sure your contact information is up to date so you don’t miss important updates about your coverage.

Today is 988 Day. 💚

There are many reasons someone might need support. Anxiety you can’t explain. Caregiver exhaustion. Panic attacks. Struggles with sobriety. Waiting to see a therapist. Or simply feeling like things are becoming too much.

Whatever your reason, that’s a reason to reach out.

The 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7. Call, text, or chat 988 to connect with a trained crisis counselor for judgment-free support when you need it.

You don’t have to wait for a crisis to ask for help. 💚

🚶‍♀️ The Power of a Post-Meal Walk! 🌿

Looking for a simple way to add more movement to your day? Try taking a short walk after a meal!

A 15-minute post-meal walk can help reduce blood sugar spikes after eating. Walking can also support digestion, break up long periods of sitting, and contribute to overall heart health. 💙

The best part? It doesn’t have to be complicated! Take a lap around the block after breakfast, step away from your desk for a quick walk at lunch, or enjoy a relaxing stroll after dinner. Every step counts! 👟

👉 Want to learn more about the benefits of post-meal walks and get ideas for making them part of your routine?

💚 Knowledge. Connection. Support. Prevention.

Mental health education and su***de prevention can make a meaningful difference in our schools and communities. We offer a variety of evidence-based programs and trainings designed to help people recognize warning signs, start important conversations, connect others to resources, and know how to respond when someone may be struggling.

Our programs are available for a variety of audiences, from students and teachers to anyone who wants to make a difference in their community! 💚

Whether you're looking to bring a program to your school, organization, workplace, or community, we'd love to connect with you!

💜 Recognizing the Warning Signs Can Make a Difference. 💜

Mental Health First Aid teaches you how to recognize the signs that someone may be experiencing a mental health or substance use challenge and, most importantly, how to respond.

Through Mental Health First Aid, you’ll learn how to:
🧠 Recognize warning signs and symptoms
💬 Start a supportive conversation
🤝 Provide initial support
🔗 Connect people with appropriate resources and professional help

You don’t have to be an expert to make a difference. Learning how to recognize the signs and knowing what to do next can help you be there for someone when they need it most.
