ADVOCACY

Youth Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Act

Representatives Tony Cárdenas (CA-29) and Lori Trahan (MA-3) recently introduced the Youth Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Act of 2021 (H.R.1803), which would provide direct funding assistance to high schools for a variety of positive mental health promotion and suicide prevention purposes.

With 22% of high school girls seriously considering attempting suicide each year, and youth mental health worsening post-Covid-19, dedicated advocates like you are needed now more than ever.

As we prepare for students to head back into classrooms, we must provide support for their mental health needs. By taking action in support of mental health and suicide prevention, you are prioritizing today’s girls and young women, so that they may be equipped to become tomorrow’s leaders.
