As we approach National Overdose Awareness Day on August 31st, we’re proud to share our involvement in Westchester County’s Overdose Awareness Day events. Last night, Desiree Rivera, a Certified Recovery Peer Advocate (CRPA) with our Article 32 Substance Use Outpatient Clinic, delivered an inspiring speech at the Evening of Connection event at the White Plains Library. Her personal story and insights into the overdose crisis were a powerful reminder of the importance of awareness and support in our community.

Yesterday, USI Insurance Services volunteers joined us at Sterling Community Center (SCC) for USI Gives Back 2024! They helped to beautify our garden, prepared meals, and engaged with SCC participants through discussions and collaborative art making. At Greater Mental Health of New York, we recognize that mental health and wellness are shaped by many aspects of a person’s life - whether it’s through meaningful employment, community connections over shared activities and meals, or enjoying time outdoors. This ideology is at the heart of our psychosocial well-being model, which guides our work and is exemplified by SCC. Through their efforts, the USI volunteers contributed to creating spaces, activities, and opportunities that support SCC participants’ wellness journeys. We’re grateful for their efforts to give back to their community’s #mentalhealth and #breakthestigma. Thank you, USI!
