If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health please reach out to NAMI Louisville or The Pete Foundation. If you or someone you know is having thoughts of suicide please call #988, they are there to help 24 hours a day!
We can’t wait to see everyone next year! Remember to take care of yourselves and each other. It takes us all to fight the stigma around mental health and to spread the word that it’s okay to not be okay!
