If someone you know is struggling emotionally or having a hard time, you can be the difference in getting them the help they need. It's important to take care of yourself when you are supporting someone through a difficult time, as this may stir up difficult emotions. If it does, please reach out for yourself.

Summer Mental Health Hotlines: A Beacon For Support for Youth
As the school year winds down, it's important to remember that transition can be challenging for many young people.

That's why WISP believes it's important to offer various Mental Health Hotlines, which will be resources for youth seeking support over the summer holiday.
