Men’s Health Awareness Month

Men’s Health Awareness Month

June is recognized as Men’s Health Month in the United States and has been observed since 1994, when it was officially established under President Clinton’s leadership. The national theme for 2026 is “Partners in Care: For Better Lifespans Across the Lifespan.” This year’s theme emphasizes caregiving and advocacy as shared responsibilities, education that supports men and boys at every stage of life, and community health that begins with one relationship and continues to grow outward (Men’s Health Network).

Mental Health Month

As we conclude Mental Health Awareness Month 2026, it is important to remember to prioritize self-care and recognize that our mental wellbeing matters. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Mental Health Awareness Month has been observed since 1949. Here at the Vashti Center for Children and Families and through the Resilient Communities of Southwest Georgia Coalition, we continue striving each year to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health.
