Ramsey County is on the lookout for some creative names, and they're giving the public a shot at branding their newest initiative. A mental health outreach vehicle is set to hit the streets, aimed at providing mental health support and services throughout the community. But before it can start its engines, it needs a moniker that sticks.
There's a carrot for the cleverest: a sweet $100 gift card for the winner whose suggestion takes the crown.The deadline for the contest is coming up fast on Sunday, May 25 – a date for all you wordsmiths to circle in red. If you think you've got the name that can carry weight and convey hope on four wheels, then you'd best not dillydally.
Remember, the name reveal isn’t just some low-key office reveal; it’s going public in a big way during the Wellness in the Park Mental Health Awareness Month Celebration on May 31. Submit your ideas and, who knows, you might just see them roll by on the side of a vehicle someday soon, according to Ramsey County’s official contest page.The outreach vehicle is set to deliver not just on-the-spot support but also wellness resources and, in the pipeline, telehealth services.
With an ambition to serve neighborhoods countywide, the rolling resource center will be an essential extension of the county's commitment to mental well-being. In a move that's both strategic and symbolic, this on-the-go approach decentralizes care, planting assistance directly where it's most needed.Tapping into the community's collective creativity not only fosters engagement but also ensures that the vehicle's identity is forged by the very people it aims to serve.
So, if you're from Ramsey County or just have a knack for naming, throw your suggestion into the ring by heading to the contest page before the May 25 cutoff. It's your chance to script a small piece of local history and snag a little shopping spree in the process..
