EARLY INTERVENTION

Early intervention is important for all children with challenges.   While it is difficult to identify children who may have challenges in the future mental health awareness is important.  Let's work together to assist them and their families with a place to feel accepted.

PASSION & PURPOSE STAMPING OUT THE STIGMA

We all deserve to be well in all aspects of our lives.  Mentally, physically, and spiritually wellness is important.  By allowing others to grow in a place of acceptance we allow each individual to develop their purpose. Removing stigma through mental health awareness, Self-care , and clothes gives them a place for everyone to be well.

Wellness is a necessity for our society to be healthy and happy.  Our children need to be healthy and happy, this means our families need to be healthy and happy.  Which further means we must work on many levels to improve overall well being as a community.  To achieve these levels of wellness, we must apply it towards every possible endeavor. You can apply a wellness approach towards your environment, community, career, belief systems, physical activities, self care, healthy eating, self esteem, and creative activities. Applying wellness in your everyday life will allow you to achieve your full potential and live with passion and purpose.  Helping others live well includes mental health."
