Health = Wealth
Mental Health Awareness Month
--
Its the last official week of mental health awareness month. Check out some of the events taking place within our network to help create balance in our bodies, brains, families, and financial accounts.
We believe that wellness is comprehensive: finance & economics, body — mental, physical, and emotional; and, community.
