The holiday season is often a time of joy and togetherness, but it can also bring stress, anxiety and financial strain. This year, the ADAMHS Board has released a newly redesigned “Coping with the Holidays” booklet to help individuals manage the social, emotional and financial pressures that may come with the season.

The guide offers practical tips for reducing stress, coping with loss or change and celebrating safely and affordably. It also includes local resource numbers for anyone who may need additional support.

Last week, staff from our Clinical and Children’s Departments attended and participated in a panel discussion at University Hospitals Rainbow Babies & Children’s Hospital Mental Health Community Partner Consortium.

Participants learned about the work of the ADAMHS Board, how we support children across Cuyahoga County, and shared ideas to strengthen collaboration and improve state metric processes. We’d like to thank University Hospitals for inviting us to take part in this important discussion.
