San Jose Spotlight recently published an Op-Ed by our CEO, Mark Cloutier: The Bay Area should be leading change for the youth mental health crisis.
Our society is experiencing an epidemic wave of behavioral health disorders that’s impacting our most vulnerable populations.
The pandemic exacerbated a pre-existing emotional environment for young people that led to increased suicide rates, severe depressive episodes and likely early drug addiction among our youth. Too many of those young people are being left out of care, get too little care or have complex issues that our current system cannot address.
We invite you to read the Op-Ed in its entirety here.
