The Future in Focus: The Need for a Comprehensive Approach to Youth Mental Health
Young people across New York are navigating a complex challenge when it comes to their mental health. The Future in Focus: The Need for a Comprehensive Approach to Youth Mental Health, presented by The Coalition to Empower our Future, brings together advocates, community organizers, youth leaders, and clinicians who are working to ensure that solutions consider the many factors impacting youth mental health. One-size-fits-all approaches rarely work to solve complex challenges. This event will examine the multitude of factors at play and the various support systems we should deploy to improve youth mental health.
