🧘 Beat the heat and clear your mind: Summer's a blast, but it can also wear you down. This summer, find some shade outside! 🏖️ Take a moment under a tree, listen to the leaves rustle, and let your mind unwind. Nature's a great way to de-stress and recharge, taking your mental health into consideration. 🌴 Even a short break in the shade can boost your mood and focus. #SummerTips #MentalHealthMatters #NatureBreak

☀️ Summer heatwaves are upon us, which means it’s important to stay hydrated as temperatures rise. ☀️ Remember to bring a water bottle with you when you’re outside, drinking fluids consistently to not overheat or faint. It’s especially important to bring water when exerting yourself in physical activities, like swimming, surfing, running, or walking. 🌊 #SummerTips #Health #DrinkWater

Southwest Key Programs joins our fellow Americans, Texans, and Houstonians in mourning the loss of a true friend and an incomparable force, The Honorable Sheila Jackson Lee. A tireless advocate for the vulnerable, the voiceless, and youth striving for a better future, her passion and dedication were unparalleled. Congresswoman Jackson Lee was a vocal warrior, never afraid to speak her mind and fight for her community and constituents. Her legacy as a Congresswoman will forever be etched in our hearts. She was not just a friend to us at Southwest Key Programs, but a partner in our mission. Together, we worked tirelessly on social justice and youth advocacy programs, uplifting the African American and Hispanic communities in Houston. Her record of public service is a testament to her dedication and love for her community. It’s a legacy that will continue to inspire us and guide our work.
