Rotary International President Gordon McInally has asked all of us to “become champions in our effort to illuminate mental health needs near and far”. In this initiative he also says “we need to advocate for removal of the stigma talking about mental health, help people find better quality care, and support them through their journey to recovery”.
How can we all do this ? Education on this topic is very important, and letting those ( of all ages)
know it’s ok to talk about mental health and to let them know what resources are available to them!

The District 5890 Mental Health Committee is planning a Mental Health Summit in March of 2024. Your help is needed. We hope to have a member of each club participate and I’m presently talking to the chairs of our Interact clubs and the Interact students themselves on September 30th at Round Up.
The Summit will consist of break out sessions with professional speakers in their areas of expertise in the mental field in the Houston area. Soon the program including the list of speakers will be posted on our club website. There will also be panel discussions with adults and with students.
We would greatly appreciate your help! Please call me or email me if you are interested in helping:)
Sincerely,
