In football, half-time is not a sign of weakness. It's a chance to catch your breath, regroup, and prepare for what comes next.

Life is no different.

This Men's Mental Health Month, we're creating space for men to share the everyday things that help them stay grounded, manage stress, and take care of their mental wellbeing.

🎥 We invite you to send us a short video (30–40 seconds) sharing:
• What helps you maintain your mental health?
• How do you reset when life gets overwhelming?
• What keeps you grounded?

Whether it's watching football, fishing, exercising, cooking, playing dominoes, spending time with family, listening to music, or simply taking a quiet moment for yourself, your story matters.

💙 Show us what keeps you in the game.

May is Child's Month, a time to celebrate, uplift, and invest in the well-being of our nation's children.

Positive Childhood Experiences (PCE's) such as feeling safe at home, having trusted adults for support, being encouraged, and feeling heard and valued, help children develop confidence, resilience, and healthy relationships.

This Child's Month, let's continue to work together to create environments where every child can learn, play, grow, and thrive. 💚

Stay tuned to our pages for more information and tips.

03/05/2026

May is both Mental Health Awareness Month and Child’s Month and we’re centering the conversation where it matters most: OUR CHILDREN.

All month long, we’ll be sharing practical tips, real conversations, and insights from child & adolescent psychologists and parents on raising mentally healthy children.

We close the month with a powerful virtual experience:
🎬 Pickney Voices: Jamaican Children’s Mental Health & Lived Experiences
In collaboration with Films that Move.
📅 Sunday, May 31, 2026
⏰ 5:00–7:00 PM

Through film and guided discussion, we’ll explore the real experiences of Jamaican children and how these shape their mental health, wellbeing, and future.

Let’s use this month to listen more, understand deeper, and show up better for our children.

💙 World Autism Day – Let’s Do More Than Awareness

Today isn’t just about knowing autism exists, it’s about showing up, listening, and embracing neurodiversity. Acceptance means creating spaces where autistic people feel seen, respected, and valued every single day.

Let’s move beyond awareness. Let’s act. Let’s include. Let’s support.
