May is Mental Health Awareness Month and, while promoting mental health is important all year, May is a month of raising awareness about mental illness, its prevalence in today's society, and its impacts on people of all ages and backgrounds.
Observed every year since 1949, Mental Health Awareness Month is dedicated to eradicating stigma, fostering public education and supporting the vital role mental health plays in our overall health and well-being.
Mental health workshops can be particularly effective in the workplace, as they can help reduce stigma and encourage open communication about mental health.
