Today is day, a great day to think about mental health, and a wonderful day to speak out about mental health. You know when else is the perfect day to do that? February 23rd at our school symposium for mental wellness. Sign up asap in student services!
After all, we can't let today be the only day that mental health is recognized. Let's turn every day into "talk openly about mental health" day.

Hey Carroll folks! The Mental Wellness Committee is putting on a symposium on the morning of February 23rd. We are going to have music, food, info booths, speakers, and activities, so I suggest you come. Mental Health affects so so so many of those amongst us, so it's about time we learn more about it. After all, 1 of 5 have a mental illness, but 5 of 5 have mental health. Sign up in student services before the spots are gone!
New Years resolutions are funny things. We tell ourselves that we're failing and need to change who we are, do better, fulfill higher expectations. But really what we need is to realize we were never failures to begin with.
Make 2016 the year of love, not only for others, but also for yourself.
Come to the fair trade fair today from 11-1 to pick up a free colouring sheet! It's a preview of the mental health adult colouring book we are working on!

We don’t have hoverboards and people still stigmatize mental illness. October 21st, 2015 sure doesn’t feel like the future to us.
