✨ Create Your Own Zine This March Break! ✨

Visit any CKPL branch during March Break and pick up a zine take‑and‑make template.

What’s a zine? A zine is a small DIY booklet or mini‑magazine you design yourself. You can fill it with drawings, stories, poetry, playlists—anything that inspires you. It’s a great way to express your creativity and make something uniquely yours.

We’ll have templates ready for you, so all you need to do is stop by your local branch and start creating.

🎨 Have fun. Be creative. Make something amazing.

Women are often praised for how much they can handle.

What they’re rarely encouraged to do is rest.

As International Women’s Day approaches, we’re reframing rest as what it really is: a mental health need — not a luxury, not a reward, and not a personal failure.

Women’s mental health improves when care, connection, and support are built into our communities, not when women are expected to carry everything alone.

Explore Strong Enough to Rest and learn more about why rest matters for mental health.

NHRC is excited to share new resources on our To***co Harm Reduction (THR) webpage! This page includes fact sheets on THR principles and ni****ne, designed to support accurate, stigma-free conversations about to***co and ni****ne. These materials address common myths about ni****ne and reinforce harm reduction-informed approaches that center choice, dignity, and real-world context. Whether used while working with people who use drugs, supporting smoking reduction efforts, or to check out clear, evidence-based tools to share, these resources are a great place to start. The page will include additional resources over time. Check it out: bit.ly/To***coHarmReductionNHRC
