This week the varsity softball team at Harborfields held a “Mental Health Awareness game” bringing attention to the importance of mental health.

The Lady Tornadoes were able to bring awareness to the topic by decorating the field, wearing specialized shirts for the game and raising funds for a local mental health organization.

The girls competed in their game against Westhampton Beach in honor of those who struggle with mental health issues. The team wore green shirts, the color of mental health awareness ribbon with “keep talking” printed in large font on the back to encourage people to discuss the importance of mental health and to be open to having a conversation.

Each day, mental health issues affect people of all ages. Raising awareness of mental health is vital so those who suffer from it can seek help and know that there are plenty of support networks that are there to help.
