Congratulations to our two scholarship recipients! We decided to award two of our very competitive candidates, Elizabeth Jones & Makenzie Gleason. We wish them all the best, and are excited to see how their passion for mental health will continue to drive change in our community.

Happy Pride Month!
Unfortunately, the LGBT+ community is affected by mental illness at a disproportionate rate. Therefore, PSNM will be posting mental health resources that specifically address mental health in the LGBT+ community for the rest of June.

PSNM has extra bandanas that we want to give away to those in need of face coverings, free of charge. We would do drop-off to homes in the Johnston area and have a designated pick up area in Johnston as well. Let us know if you are interested!

PSNM is spotlighting resources in our community and beyond that specifically aid mental health for black folks. Additionally, we have provided information of mental health resource funds open for donations. #BlackLivesMatter
