January is Mental Health Wellness Month, a time to focus on the importance of mental health at every stage of life—from childhood and adolescence to adulthood. Mental health is a vital part of our overall wellbeing, affecting our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. It influences how we feel, how we handle stress, how we interact with others, and the choices we make for our health. In Saginaw, Michigan, there are many resources available to support mental health. The Saginaw County Mental Health Authority offers services like counseling, crisis help, and education to assist people with mental health challenges. Saginaw County Community Mental Health provides programs for individuals of all ages to support their mental health needs. For those looking for more help or information, 211 Northeast Michigan is a great resource. They can connect people to local mental health services, including hotlines and support groups. The United Way of Saginaw County also runs programs that promote mental wellness, with special focus on youth and families.
