Established in 1949, May is recognized as Mental Health Awareness Month. This observance was created to raise awareness and dispel the misconception of mental illness. Mental Health Awareness Month has been practiced every year since. According to recent research, one in four U.S. adults experiences mental illness each year, and nearly 8 million children and adolescents in the U.S. battle with serious mental illness. Many of these individuals struggle in silence without receiving support. At Everett Community College, we care about the well-being of our community.
