Description:

Earlier this year, the American Academy of Pediatrics sounded the alarm when it declared a national state of emergency in child and adolescent mental health. An opinion poll by the American Psychiatric Association found that more than half of adults (53%) with children under 18 in their household say they are concerned about the mental state of their children. If you know a child that may be struggling or want to understand ways to support our children, please join The Family Institute at Northwestern University on Oct. 10 for an in-depth discussion on how to address the children’s mental health crisis.
