Mental Health Matters Coping Skills Poster

Mental health involves a person’s cognitive, emotional, and behavioral well-being, which impacts how they react to stressors, interact with others, and make life choices. It is essential for maintaining stability and happiness throughout life, from childhood and adolescence to adulthood.

The Mental Health Matters Coping Skills Poster is a valuable resource that promotes mental wellness by providing four essential reminders to help kids and teens manage stress and build resilience. These reminders are about self-care, coping with stress, building self-esteem, and being mindful of one’s thoughts and feelings.

Seeing this poster daily helps kids and teens feel comfortable prioritizing their mental well-being and developing healthy habits for managing their emotions. Consider incorporating a daily or weekly routine where children choose a coping skill from the poster to practice! Feel free to download our Coping Skills Alphabet handout for additional coping skill examples.
