Notre Dame High School, San Jose

May is Mental Health Awareness month. With many students taking AP exams these two weeks, and all students begin to wrap up their year of class work and memories, it is time we came together to recognize all the hardships we’ve faced and celebrate how far we’ve come. We bring awareness about caring for our own mental health and the mental health of others, while destigmatizing mental illness.

Let us pray. God, bring those who are struggling mentally strength and hope. Be with them in every step they take in their mental health journey. Help guide us to the end of whatever struggles we are currently facing, and help us find peace at the end of it. Please open the eyes of those who have misconceptions about mental health, and show them the importance of recognizing the truth about mental health and how it affects those around them. Please help us become more aware about mental health in order to better care for our friends, families, and ourselves. We pray this in all that is good and holy, Amen.
