L&D Presents: Mental Health with Spencer Baker

Join us for a discussion about basic mental health first aid topics including: how to talk to friends, family, and co-workers about mental health issues, possible substance misuse, addiction, and suicide.

Discussing mental health is essential to destigmatize it, raise awareness, and provide support. It helps people recognize signs early, access treatment, and learn about mental health conditions. Open dialogue reduces isolation, contributes to suicide prevention, and drives policy changes. Public conversations foster a cultural shift towards prioritizing mental health and its connection to physical well-being. Ultimately, discussing mental health empowers individuals to seek help, adopt healthier coping strategies, and promotes personal growth while building a more compassionate and informed society.
