JANUARY IS MENTAL WELLNESS MONTH
Mental wellness is about how all aspects of your life—the
social, emotional, physical, spiritual, and intellectual--all
come together for an overall state of well-being. Mental
health and wellness help determine how we act, feel, and
think, and affect our ability to handle stress, connect to others,
and make decisions.
Even if you’ve neglected your mental wellness in the past, it’s
never too late to make improvements. Mental Wellness Month
is designed as a time for you to become more mentally
resilient. You can learn to better handle stressful situations
and negative circumstances that often occur as a part of life.
Here are a few things to try:
• stay active
• spend quality time with friends and family
• take a break when you need one
• learn stress management techniques
• eat healthy foods
• get enough rest
• engage in physical activity
Please reach out to our School-Based Mental Health
Coordinator Wendy Brousseau-Anderson at 715-852-3140 to
learn more.

JANUARY IS NATIONAL MENTORING MONTH
A mentor is a person or friend who provides guidance,
motivation, support, and serves as a role model. They
can be a parent, teacher, coach, or a community leader.
Take part in National Mentoring Month by having a Small
Talk with youth on the dangers of underage drinking.
Below are some examples of how different kinds of
mentors can help.
• Parents have the most impact on children’s
choices about underage drinking. Being involved,
talking, and setting an example are all ways to
guide them.
• Teachers can find ways to include alcohol
education in their lessons, as well as how it can
impact learning.
• After practice, coaches can talk to their players about how alcohol affects their bodies and performance.
Every mentor has a different relationship with the youth in their lives. Given those unique connections, everyone in the community
has a chance to take steps to combat underage drinking. Learn more about the impact role models/mentors can make by clicking
here.

and other drug misuse. For more information visit www.getinvolvedasap.org
