August 2023 Mental Health Resources

Hyperlinks to resources within our Headspace and Spring Health accounts, focused on tools to process Active Shooter trainings.

The Wellness Committee wanted to share some mental health resources from Headspace and Spring Health as many staff process the Active Shooter training drill this morning and others prepare for the Sensory Inclusive training on September 5th. We want staff to be aware of FREE resources available that may be helpful in processing difficult emotions due to these traumatic scenarios.

 

These links do require a Headspace or Spring Health account. If you haven't already signed up with the library's access link, please see the attachments in the right sidebar for instructions. Please reach out to me or your Wellness Committee representative if you have any access issues or other Wellness related questions.
