Across the Commonwealth, children and families are facing growing mental health challenges\u2014but far too often, the systems meant to support them respond too late or not at all. Guided by five essential reforms, the Partnership is working across sectors to remove barriers to care, expand access to early intervention, and ensure that every child can thrive close to home.With Medicaid policies, local collaboration, and a commitment to prevention,\u00a0<\/span><\/i>Strong Minds, Bright Futures<\/i><\/b>\u00a0is building a system that works\u2014for families, providers, and the future of Pennsylvania.<\/i><\/p>\n

\n\tIf you could change ONE rule about the internet, what would it be?

More protection from online harassment? Better privacy? Less pressure from social media? More say in the decisions that affect your digital life?

Young Pennsylvanians deserve a voice in those conversations.

The Governor's Advisory Commission on Next Generation Engagement is inviting young people ages 16\u201326 to join its Digital Generation Listening Sessions across Pennsylvania.

This is your opportunity to share what life online is really like, what adults should understand, and what could make digital spaces better.

Your experiences and ideas can help inform recommendations to Pennsylvania's Governor.

Upcoming opportunities:

\n\tBefore a young person reaches a crisis, they need trusted places where they feel safe, supported, and able to ask for help.

Our partners at the Teen Mental Health Coalition have created new Teen Safe Spaces fact sheets with practical guidance for schools, policymakers, and parents and caregivers on how to help make those spaces possible.

Take a look, find the fact sheet that fits your role, and share it with others who can help support young people in your community: lnkd.in\/e5Q-_MCF<\/a>
