JOIN THE COMMUNITY IN PROMOTING MAY IS MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH
The theme for May is Mental Health Awareness Month 2026 is “More Good Days, Together”. This May, the Richland County Mental Health & Recovery Services Board encourages us all to reflect on what a “good” day looks like, both for ourselves and for our communities. Together, we can use that insight to connect people to the right support at the right time, and shape advocacy, education, and community engagement to make more good days possible for all of us.
To promote Mental Health Awareness Month, the Board has complied a list of special events sponsored by local mental health and behavioral health providers as well as to inform the area residents of the mental health services available to individuals and families year-round. To access and download a copy of the Richland County Mental Health & Recovery Services Board’s “May 2026 Local Events and Services Calendar” please click here or visit our online Events Calendar. We hope you can attend an event and show your support for the dedicated and professional mental health providers and advocates that are providing services to those in need in our community.

The word recovery is a general term that is used to explain a transitional time in life; whether it is an athlete recovering from a knee injury, a family member who is recovering from losing a loved one, a child recovering from a mental illness, or an adult recovering from an addiction.
