World Mental Health Day lands on the calendar once a year, but our teams devote themselves to mental health advocacy and care every single day because mental health touches every home, classroom, workplace, and neighborhood around the world. When we care for one another, we build stronger, more hopeful communities. What’s one small way you’ll care for your mental health, or someone else’s, today?

We attended our very first Life;Story events!✨🏃 Our team is grateful to have had the opportunity to participate in Centerstone Foundation’s 3 Life;Story races this month! They took place in TN, IL, and FL to raise awareness and funds to help prevent suicide. It was truly a special community effort to honor the lives touched by suicide, support survivors, and champion mental health for all. 🩵💜 Thanks for having us, Centerstone!

Creative AND changing the lives of youth. One block at a time. 🤩👏 A majority of schools in the Southwest region of Missouri are facing space constraints and are unable to provide on-site mental health services, resulting in higher levels of unmet mental health care needs and additional barriers to care. By funding and placing six Lego Offices in five schools in the Southwest region this fiscal year, School-Based Services (SBS) clinicians from Burrell Behavioral Health will be able to serve 30–40 additional elementary and middle school students per month on average. That's hundreds of lives impacted over just a few months. 💙 Thank you to all of our supporters that made this a reality!
