Introduction to the campaign
As part of California’s ongoing mental health movement, the Take Action for Mental Health campaign is designed to help you check in, learn more, and get support for your own mental health or the mental health of someone you care about.
Stats
Before we wrap up June, it’s important to remember that it’s National PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) Awareness Month. Millions of people are living with PTSD, and experience mental health challenges in the aftermath of abuse, assault, military combat, accidents, natural disasters, and other trauma.
But treatment really can help people recover. That can include counseling and support groups in person or online; medications; activities you can do at home; and service animals. To learn more and find help, go to the link in bio.

We — in our 2SLGBTQIA+ communities — help keep each other safe.
Community comes in many sizes, both online and in real life. You’ll find it in big cities and small towns. As we face ongoing efforts to erase us, we know that finding our people can help protect our emotional well-being.
For ways to uplift yourself and loved ones this month and beyond, check out our Pride guide to mental health at the link in bio.

Happy Juneteenth! 🖤 Every June 19th, we embrace joy and remember those who led the way. Today, we honor the freeing of our ancestors from slavery and reaffirm that we will ALWAYS support and protect Black mental health.
Do something that makes you feel joyful today. If you need some help, check out ways to recharge and pick-me-ups that really work at the link in bio.

June is Men’s Health Month — and you know that includes mental health! Check in on the guys in your life and offer them a non-judgmental ear. Ask how they’re really doing. This can go a long way in helping them open up about their challenges, hopes, struggles, and feelings.

Happy Pride Month! Being ourselves and existing joyfully can be revolutionary acts for us in the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
Find ways to celebrate yourself this month. That could be dancing at home to a playlist, sharing Pride posts online, or meeting up with friends after work (just to name a few ideas).
When we embrace our well-being, we tell the world that we have every right to our existence, happiness, and power ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

We recently partnered with Jordan Chiles for #MentalHealthMonth, who shared her personal experiences with mental health. Thank you so much for sharing your incredible story, @jordanchiles:
“After everything I have been through I held it together on the outside, but inside—I was breaking. That’s when I realized I had to be honest with myself about where I was mentally, and that I couldn’t push through alone.
This #MentalHealthMonth I’m partnering with @TakeAction4MH because I want you to know, that you don’t have to wait until you’re at your breaking point to ask for help.
If you’re struggling, check in with yourself. Learn more. Get the support you need. 💚
