– Global Day of Parents

Parenting is one of the noblest, most demanding, and potentially most gratifying experiences many people will encounter in their lifetime. It’s a role that can be both unifying and polarizing. Many of the challenges and triumphs of parenting are deeply relatable, yet as society increasingly recognizes the significance of parenting, conversations about the “right” way to parent can lead to division. Despite differing opinions, there is little debate about the critical role parents play in the health, development, and future success of children. A strong parent-child relationship can foster resilience, achievement, and well-being—or, without support, it can also contribute to vulnerability and mental health challenges.
June 1, Global Day of Parents, is a moment to pause and recognize the profound commitment, sacrifice, and devotion that parenting entails. It’s not just about raising a child—it’s about shaping the future of our communities and society. Parenting is a multifaceted role that includes meeting a child’s emotional, physical, intellectual, spiritual, and social needs. And it’s a role that deserves both appreciation and support.
In September 2024, the U.S. Surgeon General called parenting an “urgent public health issue,” noting that one-third of parents in the U.S. rated their stress levels at 8 or higher, out of 10. Parents today are managing stress related to financial strain, child care shortages, work-life balance, isolation, technology and growing concerns about their children’s mental health. Parenting is undeniably hard, and while we may not be able to eliminate every challenge, we can—and must—work toward making it easier through policies, resources, and community support.
Global Day of Parents is a perfect time to show appreciation—for your own parents, for yourself as a parent, or for those parenting around you. Take time to gather with family, share a moment of connection, and acknowledge the efforts that go into caregiving. But let this day be more than a celebration—let it be a call to action, a day to support and advocate for parents. Learn about local parenting programs, parenting education, and services like childcare, mental health support, or food assistance. Share resources with others, volunteer, or donate to organizations that help families thrive. Talk openly about the challenges of parenting to reduce stigma and build connection. Advocate for policies like affordable childcare and paid leave, expanded mental health care for parents, accessible parenting education programs, income and food security supports, early intervention services, and equitable access for rural, Indigenous, and newcomer families.
Because when parents are supported, they do well—and when we do well by our children, we build a stronger, healthier society for everyone.

As temperatures rise, it’s important to understand how to take care of your hearing aids. Beware of Heat! Avoid putting your hearing aids in places that attract heat quickly – like the glove compartment or console in your car. Stay Away from Moisture! Remember to take your hearing aids out before swimming or if you’re caught in the rain. Keep ‘em Clean! Warm, humid weather creates a breeding ground for germs and bacteria. You can use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris from your hearing aids. Follow these simple tips and get outside to enjoy the warm weather.
