World Mental Health Day - October 10, 2024

World Mental Health Day 2024, observed on October 10, focuses on raising awareness and promoting the importance of mental well-being globally. This year's theme, "It is Time to Prioritize Mental Health in the Workplace," emphasizes various aspects of mental health at work, from workplace conditions and stress management to the importance of social inclusion and empowerment. As mental health challenges continue to affect millions worldwide, the day encourages open conversations, reduces stigma, and advocates for improved resources and support systems. It serves as a reminder that mental health care is an essential part of overall health, deserving the same priority as physical well-being.
