Thank you, San Mateo County, for making our first Mental Health Matters Walk a success! We are grateful to all our walk attendees for coming out to Ryder Park to support mental health and wellness in our shared community during Mental Health Awareness Month.
May is Mental Health Month, a time to raise awareness about mental health, fight stigma, provide support, and educate the community on the mental health challenges that exist among our neighbors.
In recognition of Mental Health Month, StarVista has partnered with San Mateo County Law Enforcement, San Mateo County Fire, and the City of San Mateo to display StarVista’s 24/7 Crisis Hotline on public safety vehicles throughout the county.
On March 31, 2022, StarVista Grant Writer and “Here & Now” Affinity Group Member, Patricia (Pat) Dalao, hosted a one-time workshop for StarVista known as “Living into your Values”. The “Here and Now” Affinity Group is a wellness and solidarity space where members within the agency can pause, reflect and help center themselves through daily group meditations and reflection.
On Tuesday, April 12, 2022, Brook Pollard, ASW, Program Manager of Clinical Services at StarVista’s Crisis Center program hosted a livestream on StarVista’s Facebook page that highlighted ways in which you can help yourself and/or a loved one when life’s stressors are present.
In celebration of Women’s History Month, we invited all StarVista staff to share their role models with us as we celebrated women who inspire us every day.
