NAMI Chicago's Just Checking In. It’s hard to know what someone else is going through, which is why one of the most important things we can do is ask. We can listen. We can be kind. We can support them.

Of course, we should ask ourselves how we’re doing too. Pay attention to your feelings. Know that people care. Tell yourself it’s alright to ask for help.

For Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re asking you to connect with your friends, neighbors, family, community and yourself by #JustCheckingIn.
