This is an important reminder to stop scrolling, breathe, and stretch! You have a lot going on and it’s okay to take a well deserved break 🥳

Posted @withregram • @artsyaffirmations piles of pancakes? delicious. piles of stress and responsibilities? not so much. you’ve got a lot to handle, and (to keep the pancake metaphor going) it’s okay if you need to set down the fork for a second. make time for yourself and your mental health. it’s important.

You’re invited!

Our CAN Program Youth Leaders have put together a Back to School Series on Student Activism and Knowing Your Rights as LGBTQ+ Youth in schools.

We know many students may be wondering where they fit into movements for justice in our communities and how to get involved in activism. We wanted to provide a space to discuss and learn with each other and from each other. We will talk about the history of student activism, current student activism, the importance of knowing our rights in schools, and how to get involved!

July is #BIPOCMentalHealthMonth. BIPOC are often faced with years - even generations - of trauma, which translates to socioeconomic disparities and, in turn, is linked to mental health concerns today. #impactoftrauma
•
Systemic oppression is directly tied to the #mentalhealth of BIPOC. Historical and contemporary injustices continue to perpetuate trauma through generations and into today.
•
The identities of LGBTQ+ BIPOC are multidimensional which can compound the trauma experienced. This trauma can lead to severe mental health concerns.
•
To understand the #impactoftrauma, intersectionality is key. We must work to dismantle systems that perpetuate discrimination, work against health equity, and places blame on BIPOC communities. Learn more at mhanational.org/july. #BIPOCmentalhealthmonth
