Michele Clark High School & My State of Mind

As you approach graduation, balancing academics, extracurriculars, and personal life can be overwhelming. This is why prioritizing mental health is crucial. Stress, anxiety, and burnout are common, but addressing these challenges can help you thrive both academically and personally. By practicing self-care, seeking support when needed, and maintaining healthy relationships, you can build resilience.

This is why My State of Mind was created! With the increasing need for access to mental health services, in 2019, SocialWorks embarked on the My State of Mind (MSOM) initiative—a free website where Chicagoans can research, explore, and contact wellness programs throughout Chicago and Cook County.

Within the website, you can:

1. Search based on Services - The type of way the program is facilitated
2. Search based on Specialities - The obstacles you want to overcome
3. Search based on location via Neighborhoods or zip codes
4. Search based on Culture - A life experience or developmental ability related to you
5. Search based on Payment
6. Search based on Age
7. Search based on Amenities - A desirable feature available
8. Search based on Language
