LiveWell Mental Health Resources Campaign
LiveWell is a local human services coalition that focuses on improving the health of residents and the environment here in Newaygo County. LiveWell members recognize the growing mental health needs in our community and across the nation. The group wanted to reach out to see how people in the county are feeling, assure them that if they are struggling they are not alone, and provide some resources to help them access services. They also knew much of Newaygo County struggles with internet availability. The solution to this was an old fashioned mailer /newspaper ad campaign. You may recognize this ad circulating throughout the community:

If you or someone you care about is struggling, it is okay to reach out for help!
