⭐️ SUMMER PROGRAM ENROLLMENT IS NOW OPEN! ⭐️
A 2025 study found that 47.4% of Wisconsin students reported not feeling a sense of belonging, and this number continues to increase (Wisconsin Office of Children’s Mental Health, 2025).

When youth feel a sense of belonging in their community, they are more likely to:
💪🏾 Experience improved mental and physical health
🙌🏼 Build meaningful friendships and connections
🌱Engage in healthy coping strategies and positive decision-making

This summer, HIR Wellness Institute is offering youth mental health programs, led by licensed mental health providers and clinical interns, designed to foster community, strengthen coping skills, and create supportive spaces where youth can connect, learn, and grow together.

To learn more, check out our flyers or give us a call at 414-763-5815.

We hope to see you this summer! ☀️

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and throughout the month, the HIR Wellness Institute has been proud to support our community in a variety of ways focused on mental health and wellness.

While Mental Health Awareness Month provides an important opportunity to highlight these efforts, our commitment to mental health and wellness continues year-round.

From Mobile Mental Health Clinics and community outreach to educational opportunities and internship development, each initiative reflects our mission to make mental health care more accessible, equitable, and healing-centered.

Join us in our movement to mobilize mental health care everywhere!
