Subject: New Spanish-Language Mental Health Resources 

To: Kathy Wilson-Fey <kwilson-fey@ttsd.k12.or.us>

We are thrilled to announce the release of three new valuable resources to enhance mental health support for Spanish-speaking communities: Culture, Community, and Connection: 2023 BIPOC Mental Health Toolkit - The BIPOC Mental Health Month campaign and toolkit were designed to provide culturally responsive mental health information to highlight three core pillars of culture, community, and connection and how integral they are to BIPOC communities. The toolkit includes factsheets, worksheets, shareable images, and more that can aid community discussion and guide individuals to helpful resources. Selfies, Social, and Screens: Navigating Virtual Spaces for Youth: 2023 Back to School Resources - The Back to School campaign and resources were developed to help increase understanding of how online activity affects the mental health of children and teens. The factsheets, shareable images, and other materials in the toolkit can be used to help manage the challenges of virtual spaces and empower youth to make informed decisions for their mental health and well-being. New Mental Health Resources Hub in Spanish: Our Spanish-language resources hub provides a comprehensive collection of mental health materials to assist individuals, families, and others in accessing valuable mental health resources for the Spanish-speaking community. We invite you to download our campaign materials, explore the resources on our website, and share them within your communities. Together, we can foster mental health awareness and support for all. Estamos encantados de anunciar el lanzamiento de tres nuevos recursos valiosos para mejorar el apoyo a la salud mental de las comunidades que hablan español: Cultura, comunidad y conexión: Kit de herramientas de salud mental de BIPOC 2023 - La campaña del mes de la salud mental de comunidades negras, indígenas y de personas de color (BIPOC, por sus siglas en inglés) y el kit de herramientas se diseñaron para proporcionar información de salud mental culturalmente sensible para resaltar tres pilares centrales de cultura, comunidad y conexión y cuán integrales son para comunidades BIPOC. El kit de herramientas incluye hojas informativas, hojas de trabajo, imágenes para compartir y más que pueden ayudar en el discurso comunitario y guiar a las personas hacia recursos útiles. Selfis, redes sociales y pantallas: Navegando por espacios virtuales para jóvenes: Recursos para el regreso a clases 2023 - La campaña y los recursos para el regreso a clases se desarrollaron para ayudar a aumentar la comprensión de cómo la actividad en línea afecta la salud mental de niños y adolescentes. Las hojas informativas, imágenes compartibles y otros materiales del kit de herramientas se pueden utilizar para ayudar a manejar los desafíos de los espacios virtuales y empoderar a los jóvenes para que tomen decisiones informadas para su salud mental y su bienestar. Nuevo Centro de Recursos de Salud Mental en español: Nuestro centro de recursos en español proporciona una colección completa de materiales de salud mental para ayudar a individuos, familias y otras personas a acceder valiosos recursos de salud mental para la comunidad que habla español.  Les invitamos a descargar los materiales de nuestras campañas, explorar los recursos en nuestro sitio web y compartirlos con sus comunidades. Juntos, podemos fomentar la concienciación y el apoyo sobre la salud mental para todos.
