Healthy Mind Resources
A healthy mind is vital to reaching your potential and is as important as physical health. Gray Media offers many different resources to employees and their families to help manage daily stress in order to live a more balanced life.
If you don't know where to begin, let us help. This site provides an overview of resources that may be available for employees and their families.
IF YOU OR YOUR FAMILY MEMBER ARE EXPERIENCING A MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS, PLEASE CALL 911
When calling 911 to report a mental health crisis, be ready to describe the emergency, your relationship to the person and if there are weapons involved. You will be asked for your name and the person's name, age and description. Make it clear that this is a mental health crisis and ASK FOR CIT OFFICERS to respond. CIT stands for Crisis Intervention Training and these specially trained officers (where available) are trained to de-escalate situations and are familiar with community mental health resources.
