🌟 May is Mental Health Awareness Month! 🌟 Did you know that mentoring programs can make a huge difference in supporting positive mental health outcomes for youth? At Big Brothers Big Sisters, we prioritize mental health and well-being because we understand the impact caring mentors (Bigs) can have on young lives. Our evidence-based mentoring model speaks volumes: ✨ 92% of Littles feel a sense of belonging with BBBS, crucial for mental well-being. ✨ 82% of Littles maintained or improved their mental health. ✨ 90% of Littles say their Big made them feel better about themselves. But there's more to be done! That's why we're excited about the RISE from Trauma Act (H.R.4541, S.1426), a bipartisan effort to address the mental health crisis among youth. This bill supports programs tackling trauma, violence, and addiction while boosting community resources for better responses. Let's continue fostering positive relationships and supporting mental health together! 💙 To learn more: https://lnkd.in/de5jxdGC #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #BBBS #RISEfromTraumaAct #BBBSBroward #mentoring
