Family Pride Featured in Geauga County Maple Leaf: Healthy Habits for 2026

ByChris Whissen

Recently, Family Pride was invited by the Geauga County Maple Leaf to share some insight on setting healthy intentions for the new year. Our Executive Director joined other local mental health leaders to discuss the science behind New Year’s resolutions and how to build sustainable habits that support long-term wellness.

We were so excited to have this platform to talk about the importance of mental well-being as we head into 2026. In the article, “Mental Health Leaders Share Healthy Habits for 2026,” you’ll find practical strategies for maintaining balance and building routines that help you and your family thrive. We are proud to be part of a community that prioritizes mental health, and we hope these tips provide a little extra encouragement for your year ahead!
