MHSI hosted a Mental Health Fair at McCloy Park in Monticello on Monday, May 5, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. The goal was to increase awareness of services that are available in the area and "shine a light" on mental health by starting conversations that can help us figure out ways to reduce stigma and help people connect with the resources that are available to them.

Paradigm Fitness; 100 Families; Arkansas Baptist Children and Family Ministries; Holistic Recovery LLC, UAMS - WPRCI;
