It's Mind Right Monday...Build Community!

It's Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW). MIAW is an opportunity to highlight the importance of compassion, early detection, and access to care—reminding us that mental health is just as vital as physical health.

By fostering open conversations and sharing resources, we can build stronger, more supportive communities where individuals feel empowered to seek help, find connection, and live well.

The National Alliance on Mental Illness' MIAW theme for 2026 is "Building Community: Supporting Mental Well-Being Together." This theme emphasizes the importance of creating supportive environments for mental health discussions and advocacy.

For the next week AWOGI posts will provide information, education, and resources designed to normalize discussions around mental health experiences. We are supporting mental well-being together!
