💚 Mental Health Awareness Month | Be There: Golden Rule #5 – Connect to Help This is the final rule in the Be There Campaign, and it might be the most important one: 👉 Rule #5: Connect to Help Being there means more than just listening—it also means helping someone connect with the resources that can truly support their healing. You don’t have to be a mental health expert to make a difference, but you can help someone take the next step. 🧭 Try this: • Suggest they talk to a doctor, therapist, or counselor • Offer to help them research services or hotlines • Walk with them through the process of finding help • Follow up after they’ve connected with a resource 📞 Don’t forget to share local and national supports, like: • National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 988 • Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741 • Local counseling services, employee assistance programs, or school-based mental health staff. You can visit our website for more resources at svuw.org/mental-health-sud Sometimes the best way to be there... is to help someone get to where they need to go. #ConnectToHelp #BeThereForMentalHealth #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #SVUW #YouAreNotAlone https://youtu.be/eAdtV9V1VWI?si=XY9Zm31jKuJXGoQk (fb)
