Family Fun Day (12:00 - noon - 4:00 pm)
This FREE community event will celebrate youth and family members impacted by mental health challenges in Monterey County.
 WHAT: Remarks and release of bubbles as a symbol of hope and support for the mental health of children, youth and adults at Monterey County Behavioral Health Bureau’s Family Fun Day!  Click HERE for event flyers.
WHERE: Natividad Creek Park, Salinas (Gazebo area)
WHEN: Sunday, May 19, 2013 from 12pm to 4pm with release of bubbles at 1.30 PM
WHY: In the United States 1 in 5 children and adolescents experience mental health challenges, but many do not receive the services they need because of stigma in the community. This free community event seeks to reduce stigma and raise awareness that mental health is part of a person’s overall health and well-being. In Monterey County, many county and community-based organizations are working together to meet the needs of children and youth with serious mental health needs, and their families. Outcomes are showing that as a result children have fewer arrests, better grades and school attendance and improve their functioning and well-being.
Event Sponsors:
- Monterey County Health Department Behavioral Health Bureau
- First 5 Monterey County
- City of Salinas
- Hijos del Sol
- Sun Street Centers
- Alliance on Aging
- Partners for Peace

Suicide is a serious public health problem that affects individuals in various life stages. For youth between the ages of 10 and 24, suicide is the third leading cause of death. It results in approximately 4,600 lives lost each year.1
Suicides and suicide-related behaviors have a profound toll on American Indian and Alaska Native individuals and communities, particularly among their youth. The suicide rate among American Indian/Alaska Native adolescents and young adults ages 15 to 34 (31 per 100,000) is 2.5 times higher than the national average for that age group (12.2 per 100,000).2
Join us on Thursday, May 23, at 12:00 PM EDT as we highlight how one Tribe has been successful in using data to drive decisions and interventions for addressing youth suicide. This 45-minute Webinar will be led by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Deputy Assistant Secretary for Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, Dr. Don Wright, and will include a roundtable discussion on the impact of this critical Leading Health Indicator topic.

to end the silence and shame surrounding HIV/AIDS in Asian and Pacific Islander communities—is the lead for this day. This year’s theme is “Saving face can't make you safe. Talk about HIV--for me, for you, for everyone.”
