Mental Health Care Matters!

​According to the National Alliance of Mental Illness, one in five adults experience mental illness each year. Taking care of your mind is just as important as taking care of your body. In honor of Mental Illness Awareness Week (Oct. 4-10) and National Depression and Mental Health Screening month in October, we wanted to share some important resources related to mental health that contain valuable information, tools, and resources that you can share with your patient populations, colleagues, family, friends, etc.
Picture
  • The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) is the national’s largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to building better lives for the millions of Americans affected by mental illness.  NAMI works to educate, advocate, listen and lead to improve the lives of people with mental illness and their loved ones.​
Picture
  • The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) is an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that leads public health efforts to advance the behavioral health of the nation. SAMHSA's mission is to reduce the impact of substance abuse and mental illness on America's communities.
Picture
  • Mental Health America (MHA) is the nation’s leading community-based nonprofit dedicated to addressing the needs of those living with mental illness and promoting the overall mental health of all. MHA’s work is driven by its commitment to promote mental health as a critical part of overall wellness, including prevention services for all; early identification and intervention for those at risk; integrated care, services, and supports for those who need them; with recovery as the goal. 
Picture
  • ​​MentalHealthTX is a new website specific to Texas developed by the Statewide Behavioral Health Coordinating Council aimed to better serve Texans in seeking mental or behavioral health assistance by linking people to available local resources.
​NCFH also has COVID Resources for Mental Health specific to the agricultural worker population available. We encourage you to utilize these resources to educate and inform others about mental illness and the importance of taking care of one’s mental health.

Join us in reducing the stigma and start a courageous conversation!
