May is National Children’s Mental Health Awareness Month, which shines a national spotlight on the importance of caring for every child’s mental health. It reinforces the idea that positive mental health is essential to a child’s healthy development.

This year’s theme was “Mental Health Talk,” with the aim to raise awareness about mental health resources and to encourage youth and families to connect about mental health.
