Interactive drop-in space that focuses on simple emotional regulation skills for children, 9AM to12PM
đź”· In addition to free community resources, vendors, workshops, and mental health screenings for children & adults, Narcan and gun locks will be available while supplies last.
đź”· In the United States, over half of suicide deaths involve a firearm and tens of thousands of overdose deaths each year involve opioids. Narcan, a fast-acting, non-prescription nasal spray, can help reverse an opioid overdose, and gun locks add an important layer of protection during times of crisis, emotional distress, or when children are in the home.
We are proud to offer practical tools alongside education and connection because caring for mental health means supporting the whole community’s wellbeing and safety.
đź”· Event hosted by Matthews UMC Mental Health Ministry in Partnership with BlueCross BlueShield NC Healthy Blue.
