November is off to a busy start!

Day 1 of Junior Achievement of Southwestern Indiana JobSpark was a success! It was a great day connecting with area 8th grade students and showing them possible careers in the mental health field.

Back to it tomorrow!

Friday, our President and CEO Dr. Lionel Phelps will speak SWIRCA | Southwestern Indiana Regional Council on Aging annual Veterans Celebration; and staff will attend Substance Abuse Council of Vanderburgh County Faces of Change Conference.

The weekend will require a mask for ECHO Housing & Community Development Patriot Gala.

We love supporting our community!

Where will we see you next?

🪿🍂 Tune In Tuesday🪿🍂
Some mascots wear jerseys. Ours wears seasonal outfits!

Meet the Gibson County office's unofficial mascot, Gibby, our porch goose. This fall, he's sporting a scarecrow costume and doing what he does best: bringing smiles, sparking conversations, and helping make our waiting room a little more joyful. From clients to staff, everyone looks forward to seeing what our feathered friend will wear next.

We appreciate the fun, laughter, and sense of connection he brings to our office throughout the year. We're pretty sure he's the most photographed member of the team!

Flashback Friday!

Earlier this week, we were invited to the screening of Human First: Beyond the Athlete on the campus of University of Southern Indiana.

The documentary talks with athletes about mental health and the pressures they face while playing their sport.

A great evening sparking several conversations.

What started as a brochure, ended up being the first completed project for our communications intern Kailey from University of Southern Indiana!

She designed and updated the messaging for our School Bases Services program.

We are proud to host interns throughout the year in a variety of majors. Students gain real world experience and offer input on several projects. Reach out to [email protected] for information.

Check out the brochure below. Our team offers services in three counties at 27 schools.

The team at our Moulton office is diving deep into learning as they prepare for an intensive DBT training through Behavioral Tech Institute!

With six DBT books on the reading list, our staff is investing their time, energy, and expertise to bring even more effective, evidence-based care to the individuals and families we serve.

Their dedication to continuous growth reflects our commitment to providing the highest quality services possible. We can't wait to see all they learn and how it will strengthen the care we provide every day!

Don't get the Sunday Scaries!

Tackle the week with as much confidence as our communications director did in a CenterPoint Energy bucket lift at its block party!

But if you are anxious about Monday, try this:

Take a 5 minute walk
Focus on small wins
Tidy one area
Smile at yourself in the mirror

You can do it and we are here to help.

Today is . Our Communications Team definitely has a PROBLEM saying no to attending and putting on events. STAY TUNED to some exciting announcements coming up in the next month...

Throwback Thursday!

We had a blast handing out candy and information at Warrick Parks Foundation Halloween in the Park at Friedman Park!

At least 2,500 people attended Sunday and we loved connecting with the community.

And of course handing out treats!

Don't forget we have more candy and resources coming up at the Love Shouldn't Bite Trunk or Treat YWCA Evansville! Hope to see you there.
