Memorial Health Family Mental Health Kits
Mental health wellness kits will be available to check out at the Decatur Public Library as part of a regional community health initiative through Memorial Health. The kits are designed for ages 3 through adult and include books, worksheets, coloring pages, resource lists & more.
Memorial Health has kindly donated books to help families discuss emotions and mental health. Their hope is that families read together from an age-appropriate book to spark conversation and connection about issues that can affect mental health.
When patrons check out these books, they can stop by the Children’s Reference Desk and pick up a Family Mental Health Wellness Kit. The kits include books about emotions and mental health, worksheets on breathing and grounding techniques, coloring pages, and local support and mental health resources.
The books are located in the Parent-Teacher Collection in the Children's Area.
If you need help locating this collection, please ask at the Children's Reference Desk and they will direct you to the Parent-Teacher Collection!
