What do human rights mean to you? We love to hear from our community and we love to know how they think and feel about certain issues. Their views on human rights are important to us, and the way that they view their own human rights speaks volumes about the kind of support that they have. We are proud of our community, and it's our mission to ensure that everyone feels empowered enough to have a voice and exercise their own human rights. ❤️ . . . #accord #minnesotanonprofit #therapy #twincitiesnonprofit #accordminnesota #mentalhealth #accordmn #twincities #MentalWellness #Support #EndTheStigma #CompassionateSociety #MakeADifference #HealthierCommunity #Thrive #MentalHealthAwareness #PositiveChange #mentalhealthstigmas #stigmas #stigma #humanrights

The silent struggle. 😢 Sadly, there is a big difference in how physical illness and mental illness are recognized. Oftentimes, people don't even realize that someone is struggling with mental illness. Other times, people may be aware but aren't sure how to show support. Mental health deserves the same empathy, support, and care as physical health. A kind word, a listening ear, or a simple gesture can make all the difference—and it can even save a life. Let's change the narrative and be there for each other, no matter what the nature of the illness. Drop a 💜 if you needed to see this! . . #accord #minnesotanonprofit #twincitiesnonprofit #accordminnesota #accordmn #lifesharing #twincities #MentalWellness #Support #EndTheStigma #CompassionateSociety #Generosity #MakeADifference #HealthierCommunity #Thrive #MentalHealthAwareness #PositiveChange #mentalhealthstigmas #stigmas #stigma #giving #generosity

We had an amazing weekend at the Minnesota Special Olympics Inclusive Work & Resource Fair! Accord was thrilled to be a part of this incredible event, held at Stillwater High School on June 22 and 23. We loved spreading the word about Accord and meeting so many wonderful people from our communities! Inclusive work opportunities are an important topic in the Special Olympics community, and we at Accord are dedicated to connecting job seekers with employers who support these initiatives. It was a pleasure to interact with athletes and caregivers, answer their questions, and provide valuable resources. A big thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth! Together, we can make inclusive work a reality for all. #InclusiveWork #Accord #SpecialOlympics #CommunityEngagement

Breaking Down Barriers and Changing Lives 💜 PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) is a mental health condition that is caused by experiencing trauma. Trauma is characterized as anything that is a shock to the nervous system. It can also be a response to witnessing a traumatic event. Symptoms can include flashbacks, nightmares, and complete avoidance of things that might be a reminder of the trauma. It can affect children and adults, people of any race or background, and can completely hinder the well-being of those who experience it. We’re dedicated to breaking down the barriers surrounding PTSD, offering compassionate and supportive services to help individuals navigate their mental health journey. Our mission is to empower people to reclaim their lives and well-being, providing the tools and resources needed to overcome challenges and to help individuals live full, healthy lives. Together, we can create a community of understanding and healing! 🌟 Give today using the link in our bio. . . . #accord #minnesotanonprofit #ptsd #twincitiesnonprofit #accordminnesota #employmentservices #accordmn #lifesharing #twincities #MentalWellness #Support #EndTheStigma #CompassionateSociety #Generosity #MakeADifference #HealthierCommunity #Thrive #MentalHealthAwareness #PositiveChange #mentalhealthstigmas #stigmas #stigma #giving #generosity

Life sharing services = Life changing experiences We believe in building communities where EVERYONE feels included and empowered, no matter what challenges they face. 🌈 SWIPE to explore our Life Sharing Services at Accord! ➡️ Life Sharing offers a housing option for adults who would thrive in a shared living experience. Unlike group housing or adult foster care, Life Sharing allows individuals to choose where and who they live with, giving them more independence and control over their living arrangements. ✨ . . . #accord #minnesotanonprofit #twincitiesnonprofit #accordminnesota #accordmn #lifesharing #twincities #MentalWellness #Support #EndTheStigma #CompassionateSociety #Generosity #MakeADifference #HealthierCommunity #Thrive #MentalHealthAwareness #PositiveChange #mentalhealthstigmas #stigmas #stigma #giving #generosity
