Grieving the Derby:
Mental Health Tips for Getting Through This Together By Marcie Timmerman, Executive Director, Mental Health America of Kentucky The Kentucky Derby is much more than a two-minute horse race. It is an event that signals Spring is here and Summer is on its way. It is a gathering of family and friends. It means special food, special drinks, hats, flowers, and a feeling of pride in being from Kentucky. The 2020 Kentucky Derby has been postponed to September because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We have collected some tips for helping yourself and your family get through this time.
