As Mental Health Month winds down, we’re reminded this conversation doesn't end in May. From looking for the helpers to breaking the stigma, each step matters — but the most powerful step is the one we keep taking together.
That’s why we’re recognizing the champions among us. The Rural Minds Matter Advocate of the Year Awards honor those who’ve gone above and beyond to support mental wellness in Kansas’ rural communities — through action, outreach and empathy.
Join us in committing to carrying the conversation forward — on your farm, in your town and with the people who matter most.
Because mental health matters. Always.
