Today is World Mental Health Day. 🌍💚 Mental health is just as important as physical health, and today serves as a reminder that we all have a role to play in promoting well-being—for ourselves and for those around us. Whether it's checking in with a colleague, taking time for self-care, or encouraging open conversations about mental health, small actions can make a big difference. Let’s continue to break the stigma, offer support, and prioritize mental health in our workplaces, communities, and personal lives. 💪🧠 #WorldMentalHealthDay #BreakTheStigma #MentalHealthMatters #SelfCare #SupportOneAnother

Every so often we are fortunate to share the stories of our extraordinary clients who have moved through our support services. Peter's story highlights the compounded impact the pandemic had on neurodivergent people and their mental wellbeing.
