September is Suicide Prevention Month — a time to raise awareness of this stigmatized, and often taboo, topic. We use this month to shift public perception, spread hope and share vital information to people affected by suicide. Our goal is ensuring that individuals, friends and families have access to the resources they need to discuss suicide prevention and to seek help. Suicidal thoughts, much like mental health conditions, can affect anyone regardless of age, gender or background. In fact, suicide is often the result of an untreated mental health condition. Suicidal thoughts, although common, should not be considered normal and often indicate more serious issues. If you or someone you know needs help please call or text the hotline at 988.

Happy Labor Day from PACE. We wanted to share some fun facts about the Holiday! 1. The first U.S. Labor Day was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, planned by the Central Labor Union. The Labor Day parade of about 10,000 workers took unpaid leave and marched from City Hall past Union Square uptown to 42nd Street, and ended in Wendel’s Elm Park at 92nd Street and 9th Avenue for a concert, speeches, and a picnic. 2. Oregon was the first to declare Labor Day an official holiday in 1887. 3. Labor Day is considered the ‘unofficial NFL season kickoff.’ 99.44 percent of the time, the NFL plays its first official season game the Thursday after Labor Day. 4. The first Waffle House opened on Labor Day. In 1955, in Avondale Estates, GA, the very first Waffle House opened its doors to the public. 5. What are we celebrating? The contributions and achievements of the 155 million men and women who are in the U.S. workforce. 6. On June 28, 1894, Congress passed an act making the first Monday in September of each year a legal holiday in the District of Columbia and the territories.

September is National Recovery Month! National Recovery Month (Recovery Month) is a national observance held every September to educate Americans that substance use treatment and mental health services can enable those with a mental and/or substance use disorder to live a healthy and rewarding life. Recovery Month celebrates the gains made by those in recovery, just as we celebrate health improvements made by those who are managing other health conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, asthma, and heart disease. This observance reinforces the positive message that behavioral health is essential to overall health, prevention works, treatment is effective, and people can and do recover.

Since school is back in full swing, we wanted to remind everyone of some healthy homework habits, according to KidsHealth. 1. Know the teachers — and what they're looking for. 2. Set up a homework-friendly area. 3. Schedule a regular study time. 4. Help them make a plan. 5. Keep distractions to a minimum. 6. Make sure kids do their own work. 7. Be a motivator and monitor. 8. Set a good example. 9. Praise their work and efforts. 10. If there are continuing problems with homework, get help. If you have questions about any of these tips, check out the website: https://lnkd.in/gahqh-H9 for more information.
