This newsletter will provide you with information on emotional, mental, physical and nutritional health. We will focus on how to help you be proactive about your health and well-being. The EWS Newsletter will also provide support & guidance resources that we hope will assist you in dealing with stressors and challenges.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month! Please take some time this month to prioritize YOUR mental health and care for yourself. Remember mental health IS health and reaching out for treatment, support and resources is very important.

Ways to Observe Mental Health Awareness Month:

1. Take Care of Yourself - Life is full of ups and downs, both solvable and not so much. Seek the right treatment to help yourself get better.

2. Take Care of Loved Ones - Check up on your family and friends to provided support and encouragement when needed.

3. Talk About Mental Health - The more you talk about it, the more normalized it will become.

We also want to remind you that Irving ISD has 3 Licensed Professional Counselors on staff available to ALL employees at no-cost!
