 Hi, I'm Mayor Betsy Price. It's no secret that 2020 has been filled with challenges, and while many of us are looking to the new year with a new sense of hope, but the unfortunate reality is, our community is facing a public health crisis beyond COVID-19. Far too many Fort Worth residents are impacted by our mental health crisis, which is why we're launching Reach Out Fort Worth Day, a day dedicated entirely to inspiring and empowering all Fort Worth residents to meaningfully connect and support one another. Participating in Mondays Reach Out Fort Worth Day is simple. Pick up the phone and call a friend. Write a note to a neighbor. Simply ask them, how are you doing? Mental health crisis, addiction, isolation, and abuse are all on the rise in our community. We need to be there for our friends, family, co-workers, and neighbors who just might be suffering silently. This day is a reminder to reach out and connect and check on those around you. I hope you join me on Monday, December 21st. Simply reach out to a friend or a neighbor. Use the hashtag Reach Out FW to tell us who it is you're reaching out to. Thanks for helping.
