As we near the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, the NFL Player Care Foundation strives to continue prioritizing the well-being of former players and promoting open conversations about mental health beyond May. Our organization's mission is to improve the quality of life of former NFL players; and mental health is a core component of overall well-being. It can help you cope with life's stressors, increase overall satisfaction with your individual journey, maintain valuable human connections, and identify your potential for growth. We hope this short video serves as a reminder that dealing with life's challenges can be overwhelming, and everyone deserves to feel empowered to seek help when needed. PCF supports former players year-round through its various mental health and financial programs. We have three social workers on staff to help former players navigate their options and locate resources that best fit their needs. Contact us today at 1-800-NFL-GOAL! #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #WhereToStart #MentalHealthMonth
