Are kids getting the support they need this summer?

Hi Peter,

Summer break is in full swing. Although some children may be enjoying their time off from school at summer camp or on the beach, the reality is that summer break is a big concern when it comes to children’s mental health.

It can be easy for some children to become disconnected during the summer, especially without school providing a daily routine. It also can be isolating as socialization in school comes to an end and summer activities become restricted from the pandemic.

No matter what season it is, our children need mental health resources. Children need help with their mental health in and out of school, but many states are still failing to do so.

That’s why Hopeful Futures is building a nationwide community to demand better mental health resources for children. Will you join us in taking action to help improve resources in your state?

TAKE ACTION

Children are spending time outside of the classroom this summer but that can also mean missing out on vital resources. School can provide a much needed routine as well as interactions with friends. When the school year ends, the sudden change to routines and interactions can be detrimental to the mental health of a child.

It’s tough to hear, but suicide has become the second leading cause of death among young people ages 10-14. That’s why it’s so important for us to take steps to save lives.

But we still need a large movement to bring children the mental health resources they deserve. Will you join Hopeful Futures today in advocating for better mental health resources in your state?

ACT TODAY

Thank you for joining us.
