Connection Session, Intersections: Supporting youth, their identities, and their mental health needs across disciplines

The 2023 Connection Session will work to increase adolescent health professionals’ capacity to support adolescents’ mental health needs through culturally responsive, youth-centered practices. The event will support attendees in developing actionable strategies around being an “askable adult” as it relates to mental health, acquiring community-centered resources, and building cross-discipline collaboration. Centering the voices of communities marginalized by systems of power will be at the core of the event and will equip attendees to better understand mental health in the context of intersectionality

Registration for the event opens on Monday, November 7, 2022.
