Adanta champions May 6, 2010 as Green Thursday National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day Adanta is proudly joining with the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, along with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and Kentucky's System to Enhance Early Development, to sponsor and champion May 6, 2010 as the National Children's Mental Health Awareness Day. As a provider of direct services to hundreds of children in our ten counties who have mental health or behavioral health needs, Adanta recognizes the growing body of research pointing to how critical Early Development (birth to age 5) is to our youth. Proper nurture at home, early identification and treatment of problems, and ongoing support from multiple sources (home, school, social circles, church, peer interactions) across a child's developmental years is paramount in ensuring optimum growth and development. Adanta encourages other individuals and groups within our communities to unite with us in celebrating and promoting Green Thursday, which prompts recognition that a child's mental health is important in every environment in which they spend time (dinner table, gym class, peer group, one-on-one parent/child interactions), that a child needs consistent and ongoing nurturing both emotionally and socially from the earliest years all the way through the end of adolescence and the transition into adulthood. On this day we challenge educators, pastors, parents, healthcare workers, and many others whose work brings them into contact with children. The challenge is to educate ourselves about childrens' social and emotional needs throughout their formative years, and to equip ourselves to make a positive difference in every child's life that we influence. What can you do to support this special day? Adanta staff will be encouraged to wear green on Green Thursday, May 6, 2010, as a symbol of our support of this initiative. We urge those in our communities to do the same, so that we can show our children, and one another, that we are committed to each child achieving his or her full potential. The most important thing you can do is make a commitment to listen to children, and to educate yourself so that you become increasingly aware of the many obstacles and hazards they must navigate on the road from birth to maturity. On behalf of Adanta, let me welcome you to join us in celebrating and promoting Green Thursday. For further information about this event, or if you have related questions, please call or stop by one of our clinics and inquire. -Bryan Miller, Adanta Child & Family Services Director This story was posted on 2010-04-18 17:39:18
