In May, we learned about mental health and the gaps that need to be filled in Florida. Now it's time to #Vote4MentalHealth

Are you registered to vote? https://t.co/axodp7ENah

As we approach the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, let’s focus on ending the stigma around mental health conversations.

Talking about anxiety, depression, stress, or trauma should feel just as normal as talking about physical health.

💚Your story matters.

#EndTheStigma

[Florida Mental Health Advocacy Coalition (FLMHAC) @FLMHAC]

You never truly know what someone else is carrying.

A kind word, a quick check-in, or simply listening can make a huge difference in someone’s day.

This month, let’s normalize compassion, empathy, and supporting one another. 💚

Every elected official – from Capitol Hill to city council – makes decisions that impact the mental health services in your community. FLMHAC is launching NAMI’s https://t.co/E9yGZB3BDX
campaign to promote nonpartisan voter participation and elevate discussions about MH. #Vote4MH

[Florida Mental Health Advocacy Coalition (FLMHAC) @FLMHAC]

Mental health isn’t a Democratic or Republican issue. It’s an American issue. Make your voice heard. Pledge to #Vote4MentalHealth during this election cycle. https://t.co/N0ZqGQp5hg

#988 is saving lives. A study published in JAMA in April shows suicides in the U.S. among young people ages 15-34 were 11% lower than expected between the 988 rollout in July 2022 and Dec. 2024, representing 4,372 fewer deaths than projected. https://t.co/j8i4IU2nur
