    Know your voter rights as Election Day approaches! If you or someone you know is eligible to vote and experiencing homelessness in Minnesota, you can register on Election Day using the location of where you sleep as your address. You'll just need to go to the polling place with someone who can confirm where you are sleeping — this is considered your voting residence. If you are sleeping at a shelter or at a friend's house, you'll include that address on your registration form. If you sleep outside, you'll write a description of its location on your voter registration application. More on who needs to accompany you and what kind of info you'll need to provide is included here: https://bit.ly/4eCrNAt Remember: Your vote matters!

    Mental health first aid came from the idea that in addition to learning how to take care of someone during a physical health emergency, people should also be taught how to care for someone during an emotional or mental emergency. And it's as easy as learning a simple acronym: ALGEE — assess, listen, give, encourage, and encourage. (Yes, encourage is included twice!) Visit the Guild blog to learn more and add this new tool to your first aid kit: https://bit.ly/3Y9Ez3I

    Many of the clients we serve face barriers to exercising their right to vote, from mobility, mental health, and substance use challenges that make it difficult to stand in line with crowds, to a lack of access to transportation to polling places, to misunderstanding their voter rights. Some important things to keep in mind as Election Day approaches: - If you're someone who gets anxious waiting in long lines, or who doesn't have a way to physically get to their polling place on Election Day, you can vote early or by mail-in absentee ballot. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3kDdNdu - Eligible voters in Minnesota experiencing homelessness can register to vote on Election Day at the polls using the location of where they sleep as their "voting residence." More info: https://bit.ly/3XCTuSx - If you can’t read or need help voting due to disability, you can have someone join you to help you vote. You can also ask the election judge to help you if you didn’t bring anyone with you. More info: https://bit.ly/47DhMAA - Your name and the location you list as your address when registering to vote are public records, but for voters concerned about their safety or privacy concerns, there are ways to register without making your information public. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3ZvB0Gn - You have the right to take time off work to vote without losing your pay, personal leave, or vacation time if voting falls within your scheduled work time.

    At Guild, every day feels like #WorldMentalHealthDay. We know all too well how debilitating and challenging it can be to navigate life with mental illness. It's estimated that mental illnesses cut an average of 10 years off of life expectancy around the world ... and that it takes a person approximately 11 years after they first experience symptoms to get treatment. If it feels like that math isn't "mathing," it's because there's much more work to be done to de-stigmatize mental illness and encourage people to get the help they need to start their road to recovery. If you're experiencing a mental health crisis, you can call Guild South - Maureen’s House to be screened for residential crisis services at (612) 267-5242. You can also reach out to Guild's Crisis and Recovery Center at (651) 347-9889. More information and resources also available here: https://bit.ly/4cBBrTe

But there’s one staff position that’s especially unique. Our peer support specialists share a lived experience with mental illness with our clients, and they use their own stories of recovery to help inspire our clients and give them hope that recovery is possible.
