In partnership with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), PWCS recognizes May as Mental Health Awareness Month. This year's message is "More Than Enough," emphasizing that all people–with and without mental health challenges–are worthy of respect, inclusion, and care. Our school division and community strive to reduce the mental health stigma and provide education and resources to support everyone’s journey toward wellness. Each week in May will highlight mental health initiatives empowering our community to feel a sense of inclusion, support, and encouragement. Read More >>
