The Office of School Support and Well-Being and the Montgomery County School Psychologists’ Association will co-host the 2024 Mental Health Awareness Week (MHAW), from October 21, 2024 to October 26, 2024.
The Mental Health Resource Fair will be held on Saturday, October 26, 2024 , from 10:00am-2:00pm at Seneca Valley High School ,19401 Crystal Rock Dr, Germantown, MD 20874.
The event is open to students, families, and staff and will include MCPS and community partners sharing information about mental health and wellness; as well as a student-lead forum focusing on issues impacting Montgomery County youth. Students may earn Student Service Learning hours for participation in the Resource Fair.
Each year, MHAW provides an opportunity for schools to engage students, staff, and families in conversations around the importance of becoming mentally healthy, resiliency, and strategies on how to cope when struggles arise in our lives.
We are asking for each school to provide opportunities for students and staff to participate in activities during the week.
More information to come.
