June is #MensMentalHealthMonth.

It’s time to stop telling men to “man up.” Being open about your mental health is a sign of strength, not weakness.

To the men reading this: You don’t need to suffer in silence. You are not alone. 💙

The secret to winning is learning how to lose. That is, learning to bounce back from failure and disappointment—undeterred—and continuing to steadily march toward your potential. Your response to failure determines your capacity for success.

An important factor in helping Black boys and young men prepare for college and careers is having culturally competent school counselors.

[Erik M. Hines @EHinesPhD]

School counselors have specialized skills in counseling, mental health and wellness, career development and planning, and college readiness.

[Erik M. Hines @EHinesPhD]

School counselors can use school data to identify opportunity gaps that Black boys and young men encounter and collaborate with other school personnel to develop strategies to optimize their academic success!

[Erik M. Hines @EHinesPhD]

“We should have the same fervor with Black boys and men - seeing their humanity and celebrating the tremendous value they have added not just in sports, but also in academics and various career fields.”

Slavery was Legal.

Colonialism was Legal.

Jim Crow was Legal.

Apartheid was Legal.

Legality is a matter of Power, NOT Justice.

[Ujima Center for School Counseling Scholars @bowiestateujima]

Every emotion matters—yes, even the messy ones. 🌈

Whether it’s Joy, Sadness, or Anger (shoutout to Inside Out for the inspo!), let’s create space for students to process and feel.

Thank you @consejera_mrs_garcia_ for this much-needed reminder!
