We spent this week talking about coping, vulnerability, and breaking the silence, but real change doesnβt take a week. It takes months and years of intentional practice. Let this campaign be a starter for the change we want to see. #Checkonhimtoday #Mensmentalhealthawareness

Masculinity should never mean hiding your emotions. Real men cry. Real men feel. Real men ask for help. Real men heal. Masculinity does not mean silence. It does not mean suffering alone. It does not mean pretending youβre fine. #Checkonhimtoday #MensMentalHealthAwareness

Here are a few ways you can show him you care and he stil matters. Half the time, itβs the small, intentional things that remind a man heβs not carrying everything alone. What would you add? #Checkonhimtoday #MensMentalHealthAwareness

We need to start talking about the quiet battles men face, the pressure to βbe strong,β and how they struggle in silence. What did we miss? Share an opinion or a reality about menβs mental health that people donβt talk about enough. #Checkonhimtoday #Mensmentalhealthawareness

These may be hard truths, but theyβre still the truth. Men are carrying stress from work, money, family, expectations, yet their mental health is often pushed aside. It gets downplayed, or ignored and that shouldnβt be the case. #Checkonhimtoday #MensMentalHealthAwareness

These numbers are not just statistics, they are reminders that men need safe spaces, support, and compassion just as much as anyone else. 2/2

Schools are meant to be safe, but many cases of sexual abuse are still mishandled or dismissed in silence. Accountability is a moral obligation and not just a policy requirement. This Saturday, we are hosting the Veronica's Veil Webinar.
