The Mayor's Message - 05.01.2023

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and on Tuesday, Fargo Cass Public Health, The Fargo Police Department and the 4-6-3 Foundation will host a news conference to premier a suicide prevention public service announcement video titled the “Faces of Suicide.” The video features family members and friends of loved ones who have lost their lives to suicide. The awareness month is dedicated to breaking down the stigma surrounding mental health by providing education and highlighting community resources available for those who may be struggling with mental health issues.

A “Star Wars” Celebrations event for teens will take place Thursday, May 4, at 6:30 p.m. at the Main Library. Those attending will make a lightsaber craft, play “Star Wars” trivia and engage in other themed activities. A free concert featuring the Cropdusters will take place Saturday May 6, at 2 p.m. at the Main Library. The fourth annual Northern Focus photography project continues through May 31. This region-wide photography project is for up-and-coming recreational photographers age 13 and older.

May 7 through May 13 is Public Service Recognition Week. I want to take this opportunity on behalf of the City Commission and City Administration to thank the employees of the City of Fargo for the work they do to support our community. There are approximately 1,600 dedicated employees who take a great deal of pride in the work they do for the citizens of Fargo. We as a commission and administration are very proud of the accomplishments of Team Fargo. I also want to thank other public servants who live and work in our community. Know that we appreciate your service as well.

Eating healthy and having fresh, local food is important for maintaining a proper diet and enhancing the food system. However, not everyone has access to it. The Cass Clay Food Partners are working hard to provide opportunities for people to have access to local produce on a tight budget.
