Today is World Mental Health Day 2026. This year’s global theme is "Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change."
True progress in mental health care starts with listening. When we elevate the voices of those with lived experiences, we don't just reduce stigma—we actively reshape workplace cultures, healthcare systems, and communities. Let’s commit to listening deeply, supporting openly, and driving real change. 💚

“Keep an Eye on What You Fry”

⚠️Cooking is the leading cause of home fires. Stay in the kitchen when frying, grilling, or broiling.

💡If you see smoke or grease starts to boil, turn off the burner and move the pan.
Keep a lid nearby to smother small stovetop fires.

🎒 An emergency kit isn't one-size-fits-all.

Start with the basics, then think about what you and the people (and pets!) in your household would actually need in an emergency.

The Connecticut DPH Preparedness Guide has tips to help you build a kit that works for you.

And yes, you should probably check the batteries while you're at it. 🔦
