This month is a reminder to lead with empathy, listen without judgment, and make support accessible for all.
Support is here—24/7/365

VD: Person 1: A light-skinned Hispanic woman stands in front of a dark gray background. She wears a black shirt with a “DeafLEAD” logo on the left side and has long, wavy dark brown hair.
Person 2: A person stands wearing a black “Mental Health Matters” shirt, with long hair worn down and layered necklaces.
Person 3: A white woman with shoulder-length dyed blue and brown hair, worn down, stands against a white background. She is wearing a black tank top and silver jewelry.
Person 4: A light olive-skinned man stands against a black background wearing a black Viking-style shirt with ties at the V-neck. He has dark brown hair, a full beard, and hazel-green eyes.
Person 5: A white individual wears a dark green V-neck shirt, accessorized with a green pendant necklace, hoop earrings, and gem rings.
Person 6: A white woman with blonde and brown highlights has her hair tied back. She wears thin-rimmed glasses and a solid black long-sleeved shirt.
Person 7: A white, Deaf, non-binary person sits against a split background—half off-white wall with ski décor and half wooden panel wall. They have dark brown hair in a bun with shaved sides and wear small silver hoop earrings, a black t-shirt, and a watch. They are looking directly at the camera while signing.
The video then transitions to a purple background featuring a centered light gray rounded rectangle. At the top, a teal banner reads, “For Those Facing Suicidal Crisis or Emotional Distress:”. Below are three black icons representing videophone, text messaging, and online chat. Under the icons, black text reads, “988 via Videophone, Text, or Chat.”
The video ends with a light gray background displaying the DeafLEAD logo centered on the screen. Below the logo, purple text reads, “You Are Not Alone.”
