The theme for week 3 of Mental Health Awareness Month: Words Matter and Words Can Heal

The language we use matters, not only when talking about mental health struggles, but also in our day to day interactions. Slowing down to put ourselves in another person's position can help to shift our perspective, our feelings, and the words that we use to foster compassion for others and reduce stigma surrounding mental health struggles.

We are each impacted by mental health, whether personally, or indirectly through a friend, family member, or colleague. Committing to talking about mental health with care and compassion helps people to feel seen, heard, and respected.

Sometimes the most important thing you can do is to listen without judgement and make sure the young person in your life feels truly heard and understood.

Open conversations build trust and resilience.
