How can choosing a healthy lifestyle help others? When others see friends or family making a positive change in their lives, they are often inspired to follow those examples.
On May 18, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration (SAMHSA) kicked off National Prevention Week. SAMHSA invites everyone to join the “I Choose Campaign” and submit photos and messages about why substance abuse prevention and mental health are important to you; and how you maintain a healthy lifestyle. You can include sports, hobbies, or other interests you have. You can participate by:
- Sharing your photos and messages on Twitter using the hashtag #ChoosePrevention.
- E-mailing your messages and photos to to NPW@samhsa.hhs.gov.
- Taking the prevention pledge on Facebook and inspiring others with your commitments to health and well-being for you and your community.
Submitted and shared photos will be showcased at the live kick-off event in Washington D.C., via social media, and on SAMHSA’s National Prevention Week website. You can also join the discussions taking place on Twitter during this yearly observance by following or using the hashtag #NPW2015.
