May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time for reflection and engaging in advocacy surrounding mental health. In the Lynn Public Schools mental health support is an integral part of our daily work on behalf of our students and families.

As we reflect on the years of dismantling the stigma surrounding suicide and mental illness, we also look to our future and the ways that we can expand our services to meet an ever-growing need. If you or a family member is experiencing emotional or mental health distress, do not hold that alone.  Isolation is not a helpful during times of distress. Reaching out is a courageous action and one that will bring healing.

Please feel free to contact the Social Emotional Learning department at LPS Admin 781-477-7220 ext. 3183 or connect with the clinical team at your child’s school.
