Today, on World Mental Health Day, we embrace the theme “It is Time to Prioritize Mental Health in the Workplace.” In our fast-paced world, the workplace can often be a source of stress and anxiety. It’s crucial that we create environments where mental health is valued and supported. By prioritizing mental well-being, we not only enhance productivity but also foster a culture of empathy and understanding. At Family Service, a dedicated mental health non-profit, we understand the profound impact that mental health has on every aspect of life, including work. Our mission is to build stronger communities, strengthen families, and empower individuals through compassionate, life-changing programs and mental health services. By providing support and resources, we ensure that mental health is never overlooked. Let’s make mental health a priority, not just today, but every day. 💚

Celebrating a Successful Mental Health Awareness Month As we wrap up our Mental Health Awareness Month, we’ve focused on the vital role animals play in our wellbeing. Our team organized a drive, collecting items and monetary donations for our local Humane Society (Humane Animal Welfare Society - HAWS of Waukesha), supporting another valued nonprofit in our community. This collaboration has been incredibly rewarding. A heartfelt thank you to our staff for their generous contributions and to the HAWS team for their warm welcome. For those interested in supporting HAWS further, we encourage reaching out to them to explore volunteer opportunities or to make individual or company donations.
