September is a great time to pause and remind ourselves that self-care is essential—not only for our personal well-being, but also for creating a healthier workplace.
Taking care of yourself can mean setting healthy boundaries, taking a break when needed, staying connected, or simply making time to recharge. Just as importantly, caring for others through kindness, support, and understanding can make a meaningful difference in our workplace culture.
Continue to learn and share simple ways we can prioritize well-being, support one another, and help create a healthier, more positive workplace for everyone.
This September, let’s make self-care and caring for others part of our everyday workplace culture.
Suicide Awareness Month
September is Suicide Awareness Month, a time to encourage compassion, reduce stigma, and remind one another that support is always within reach. This month offers an opportunity to share resources, promote open conversation about mental health, and ensure employees know where to turn if they or someone they care about needs help. You can include the resource link provided to make access to support simple and visible.
Even small gestures—checking in, listening, sharing information—can make a meaningful difference. Suicide Prevention Resources: How to Get Help By Phone, Text, and Chat | Youturn Health
Honoring the 25th Anniversary of 9/11
As the 25th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, this day offers a moment for quiet reflection and meaningful acknowledgment. You might observe a moment of silence at 8:46 AM, organize a volunteer activity in honor of the victims and first responders, or share a simple, respectful tribute message with your team.
Even small gestures can create space for remembrance and honor the significance of the day. Check out this toolkit.
