Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day May 8, 2008 

The Border Children’s Mental Health Collaborative and its partners will celebrate “National Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day” by bringing and introducing all the agencies that will be housed in the El Paso County Youth Services Center.  We hope to bring awareness of this project to the community in order to promote and celebrate healthy minds and bodies.
 Awareness Day raises awareness of effective programs for children’s mental health needs, demonstrates how children’s mental health initiatives promote positive youth development, recovery and resilience, and show how children with mental health needs thrive in their communities.
 The “National Children’s Mental Health Awareness Day” event will take place at Ascarate Park on May 8, 2008 from 6p.m. to 8p.m. with many fun activities/games, food, music, entertainment, cultural awareness and mental health information for all.    
The event will be highlighted by the “Heart of our Community, Our Mothers” leading a blessing of the land, close to the proposed site, of the El Paso County Youth Services Center.
