It’s Mental Health Awareness Month, and one Sheboygan County organization is doing its part to help those on their mental wellbeing journeys.
Mental Health America Lakeshore wants to help people to find out “Where to Start,” which is this year’s theme for the month.
Following a recent release from the Healthy Sheboygan County Community Health Assessment reporting mental health as the top public health concern, the organization is taking additional steps throughout the month.
Executive Director Julie Preder says the group has found behavioral health is very complicated, but with their experts helping people find the right resources, it’s their hope that the community finds a sense of comfort in knowing “Where to Start.”
There are several events this month, such as the Suicide Awareness Truck Show, which takes place this weekend at the Manitowoc County Fairgrounds from 11:00 to 7:00 p.m.
Other events will take place around Sheboygan County later this month.
