Why This Matters

• In 2021, the American Academy of Pediatrics declared a national emergency in child and adolescent mental health, citing rising rates of depression, anxiety, trauma, loneliness, and thoughts of suicide. These challenges have lasting impacts on students, families, and communities.

• Additionally, educators have observed increased behavioral challenges and classroom disruptions following the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected schools, homes, and communities in profound ways.

Supporting the Mental Health Needs of Our Students

The mental health and well-being of our students are priorities for Conrad Weiser ASD. Through this partnership, we aim to provide families with meaningful tools and resources to support children’s emotional and mental health.
