?? October is #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth, and it's a crucial time to shed light on the impact of domestic violence on foster youth and their mental health. ?? For many foster youth, the trauma of witnessing or experiencing domestic violence can have a lasting impact on their emotional well-being. At Ettie Lee Youth and Family Services, we’re committed to providing a safe space for healing and recovery, offering mental health support that helps young people navigate their experiences and build brighter futures. This month, let’s stand together to break the silence, spread awareness, and create a world where every child feels safe and valued. ?? If you or someone you know is struggling, know that you are not alone. Help is available. ?? #EndDomesticViolence #SupportFosterYouth #MentalHealthMatters #YouAreNotAlone

A healthy reminder for #FeelGoodFriday that all progress is not linear! When it comes to mental health and overcoming trauma, you won't get it right every time; you just have to keep running your own race! ????♀???♂?
