🚨 The Pulse News Stand: Teaching Kids to Make Healthy Choices 🚨 🍎 It Starts with Small Decisions—and Lasts a Lifetime 🧠 This week’s featured video, “Making Healthy Choices” (shared by the Monique Burr Foundation), reminds us that building mental health awareness starts with helping kids make smart, safe decisions early in life. From choosing who to spend time with to deciding how to respond to peer pressure, every choice shapes a child’s self-esteem and future. At ECHO, we bring this message into classrooms and youth-serving spaces across Jefferson County—equipping kids with the knowledge and confidence to make positive choices that support their mental and emotional well-being. 💡 Why this matters: When children feel empowered to make good decisions, they’re more likely to build healthy friendships, set personal boundaries, and speak up when something feels wrong. 💬 Try this at home: Ask your child: “What’s one healthy choice you made today?” or “What’s something you did that made you feel good about yourself?” These conversations reinforce self-awareness and confidence. 💙 Mental health starts with everyday moments.
