Resources to Support Youth Mental Health
In addition to May being National Foster Care Month, it is also recognized as a time to raise awareness for mental health. Child Welfare Information Gateway put together many resources highlighting an array of strategies that child welfare professionals can use to holistically support the mental health needs of children and youth while they are in foster care. Resources also highlight strategies for supporting caregivers and how a stable, nurturing placement can have a positive impact on children and youth’s resilience and long-term well-being.
