Mental Health Month Proclamation

Mayor Kaptain read the following proclamation:

PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, Mental health is essential to everyone’s overall health and well-being, nearly one in five adults are living with a mental health problem in any given year; and

WHEREAS, Suicide rates have increased approximately 36% between 2000-2021; and 90% of people who die by suicide have an underlying mental illness; and

WHEREAS, 21% of adults are experiencing at least one mental illness; and 12% of all calls in to the Kane County 211 helpline are in regards to mental health; and

WHEREAS, Early identification and treatment can make a difference in successful management of mental illness and recovery, so community members are then able to lead full and productive lives; and

WHEREAS, Every citizen and community can make a difference in helping end the silence and stigma that has surrounded mental illness for far too long; this negative stereotype often discourages people from getting the help they need; and

WHEREAS By diligently working to support our public education and civic activities we can encourage mental health awareness, and continue to improve the lives of individuals and families affected by mental illness.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, David Kaptain, Mayor of the City of Elgin, Illinois, do hereby proclaim the month of May as Mental Health Month, and call upon the citizens, government agencies, public and private institutions, businesses and schools in Elgin, to clearly see the need for appropriate and accessible services for all people with mental health conditions, and urge the community to recommit to increasing our city’s awareness and understanding of mental health.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 24th day of May 2023.
