Why M3?

Research shows that kids begin to feel things like anxiety, depression, lack of self-confidence, and doubt as early as eight years old. Moorhead Minds Matter (M3) recognizes that we have to connect with kids sooner by bringing them tools to help them understand what they may be feeling or what their friends may be feeling with age appropriate curriculum. We have to start young. 

M3 has partnered with Solutions Behavioral Healthcare Professions to provide licensed professionals at various events as well as consult with them to produce quality content. M3 will focus on six areas each hockey season including Focus, Motivation, Mindfulness, Emotional Regulation, Imagery, and Confidence. 

These topics will be valuable in athletic endeavors, but more importantly, they are valuable in the bigger game of life. 

M3 offers support and hosts events throughout the year that bring focus to mental health. Together we will Raise Awareness, Eliminate the Stigma, and Connect Resources for mental health and there is no better place to start than in youth sports
