May 2021 has been proclaimed Children’s Mental Health Month in South Carolina by Governor Henry McMaster. It’s a time to shine a spotlight on the importance of caring for children’s mental health. Positive mental health is essential in ensuring that your child or student is properly developing and thriving in their academic and personal lives.
Whether you are a parent, caregiver, or teacher of a child, you can participate in Children’s Mental Health Month in many ways! Given the year we have all had in 2020, and with the challenges of 2021, it is beneficial to talk to your child or student about their feelings, thoughts, and fears. The pandemic, virtual school, and race-related issues have plagued our nation for over one year now, and it is likely that the children around us are aware of some, if not all, of these issues. As an involved adult, it is important to create a safe space in your home, office, or classroom, so the children in your life can feel comfortable enough
