Our NDMS Griffins enjoyed participating in the DeSoto Parish #YouMatterCampaign last week reminding each of us that we are valued, seen, and heard. Monday kicked off with a focus on self-care. Tuesday’s focus was kindness counts. Wednesday was the power of reflection and using open dialogue exploring “Talk About It” techniques. Thursday’s and Friday’s focuses were being hopeful and having gratitude.
