Today, we are releasing the second set of data from our 2020 Youth Data Portrait. Today’s installment, which focuses on healing and wellbeing, describes how the pandemic has exacerbated the existing mental health crisis for youth and young adults, particularly among young people of color. On Monday, we released data on economic justice, and our final set of data next week will focus on safe communities.
CLASP created the Youth Data Portrait to understand the wellbeing of young people prior to and since the pandemic. We are using the data to inform our upcoming New Deal for Youth (stay tuned to learn more later!)
