Substance use concerns shouldn’t be handled alone. Know the signs and know your resources. Your SBHCs are here to help. If you’re worried about substance use (your own or someone else’s), see here: https://t.co/llPvr6ZkFz

Academic stress is real. Pause. Breathe. Reset. Talking to a counselor, getting enough sleep, and asking for help can make a difference. You don’t have to do this alone.

📚✏️ Back-to-school isn’t just about new classes, it’s about protecting your health too. Immunizations protect you, your friends, and your community. Check in with your SBHC to see how they can give you the confidence to be strong this school year! 💪 #NIAM #VaccinesWork

Our future is too bright to be clouded by smoke.

Smoking harms nearly every organ in your body and starts addictive habits that are hard to break. Smoking is especially harmful to youth because our bodies and brains are still developing. Say NO to smoking.
