World Mental Health Day is October 10. The USCCB requests that all parishes pause and reflect on healing and hope around mental health in their local community on Mental Health Sunday October 12. Resources can be found at: Mental Health Sunday | USCCB.
Additionally, a national Novena is planned from October 10 through October 18. For more information, please visit: Mental Health Novena | USCCB.
