Meet Rosie the Resilient!
As the pet mascot of the Panhandle Mental Health Guide, Rosie epitomizes the belief that healing can come through the availability of resources to those most in need.
Rosie was born into a hoarding situation and was only a few months old when the house caught fire. Fortunately, she was caught and fostered by a trainer who provided her a loving, calm home to begin healing.
Since being adopted, Rosie loves spending time with her family and helps them maintain a healthy balance between work and play. She has gained a loving home that has helped her overcome the trauma in her early life.
Rosie's experience is an excellent example that people and animals can overcome early hurdles through the availability of resources like the Panhandle Mental Health Guide, an essential tool for connecting people in need with the region’s resources that exist for mental health care and addiction.

Take a Free Mental Health Test
A screening is a tool that has been proven by research to help identify symptoms of a mental health disorder. MHA's screening tools provide an anonymous, free and private way to learn about your mental health and if you are showing warning signs of a mental illness. A screening only takes a few minutes, and after you are finished you will be given information about the next steps you should take based on the results.
A screening is not a diagnosis, but it can be a helpful tool for starting a conversation with your doctor or a loved one about your mental health.
