“Supporting the mental health of children and youth will require a whole-of-society effort.” —Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy
As the Surgeon General has declared a mental health emergency among youth, so many of us feel powerless to help. In this age of increased depression and anxiety, how can we collectively support our younger generation in the present moment so they can grow into thriving adults?
Take part in a screening of State of the Kids and community conversation to chart a healthier way forward.
