Throughout Mental Health Awareness Month, we’ve given you a closer look at the state of children’s mental health here at home and around the world. You’ve learned that more than 13 percent of the world’s adolescents live with a mental disorder and seen how historic underinvestment in mental health is harming millions of children.
You understand that lifelong mental health and well-being starts in childhood. And now, you have a chance to help improve mental health support and access for every child.
Use your voice to call on your members of the House and Senate to co-sponsor and pass the Mental Health in International Development and Humanitarian Settings (MINDS) Act, which will extend meaningful support for children’s mental health as part of U.S. foreign assistance. |
Investing in children’s mental health and well-being is critical to help them develop and live their best lives. Together, we can promote positive mental health and help children thrive.
Take a moment to help pass the MINDS Act and ensure that children have support >>
Thank you for taking action,
