Write a kind note or send a care package
Leave a #GriffinStrong sticker inside a book (place in a free library or hospital waiting room), share it with a friend, stick it (legally) in a public place
Check in on a friend even if you don’t have the “right” words - we’ve found some words are better than no words
Offer your presence - sometimes just being there is everything
