As we welcome May—nationally recognized as Mental Health Awareness Month—we reaffirm our commitment to fostering education, support, and dialogue around mental well-being. This month also includes key observances such as Maternal Mental Health Week, National Women’s Health Week (May 11–17), and Dementia Awareness Week (May 19–25), all of which highlight the importance of proactive and inclusive health care.
We also take time to honor the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S) on May 5. We invite everyone to wear red in solidarity with NVIH staff observing this important day as part of our continued effort to raise awareness and support healing within our communities.
Reflecting on the past month, our team proudly organized a series of health fairs across Chico, Woodland, Willows, and Grindstone. These events were a testament to the exceptional dedication of our staff and the invaluable support of our community partners. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all who contributed to their success.
Stay connected with us on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn for the latest updates on events, health initiatives, and community outreach efforts.
Let’s make it a great month!
Inder Wadhwa, CEO
