Thank you @marty_walsh for calling attention to mental health during this time. This last year has been challenging for so many and as we all celebrate our holidays in new ways, we encourage you to take time to care for your mental health.

The end of the year is a time for reflection, and we will all be reflecting on a very difficult year. Many people have been hit hard by the pandemic. We have all had to make sacrifices. It’s okay to feel overwhelmed, tired, or sad.
