<p>WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — May is mental health awareness month, and Saturday on group will use its resources to help the community.</p>
<p>Wilmington Mental Health will hold an open air even where locals can learn about health resources across the Cape Fear.</p>
<p>They can meet doctors, licensed counselors, yoga instructors, and even recruiters to help with job searches.</p>
<p>Therapist Joseph Rengifo said this is the first time they’ve ever held an event like this. He hopes it will be the first of many.</p>
<p>“That stereotype of mental illness as a bad thing… I think when we educate the community, we tell them that it’s more normal than they think. And it’s something that can be addressed and prevented.”</p>
<p>The event will happen from nine to five Saturday at 3825 Market Street.</p>
