Resources for Mental Health Month

May is Mental Health Month, and we want to recognize the unique position frontline health workers are in during this pandemic and what kind of toll that takes on their mental wellness.

As it is, those in health care face high rates of burn out. But now they’re even more at risk for negative mental health impacts due to the numerous demands and stressors they face caring for patients during COVID-19.

We put together mental health resources for the many states we serve, to help you and your staff cope with the stress, anxiety, trauma, or grief brought on by COVID-19:
