Not only is suicide the second leading cause of death for young people age 10 through 24, but nearly 40% of Americans live in areas with a shortage of mental health providers. The need is clear—and so is the opportunity to do better. This Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re highlighting what’s driving these gaps—and the policies that can help ensure more people get the care they need. Thank you to Stacey Baxter for sharing her perspective and the importance of early support 💚 #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #YouthMentalHealth #PublicHealthX
