It was heartwarming to hear from these experts on what all of us can do to address the pressing issues surrounding adolescent mental health. Here are quotes from some experts that resonated with me & my interns to bring awareness & destigmatize conversations around #MentalHealth.
These counselors are supporting people of color by "decolonizing" the practice of therapy. They aim to make therapy more culturally responsive and to take generational trauma into account. https://t.co/wNVi2nPLaB

Remember when the most qualified person was beaten by someone w zero experience in govt but touted being an outsider and a business leader? Let’s not do that today. Vote @chavezformayor
I am proud to build on the work of the County’s Fentanyl Working Group led by @SupCindyChavez , @SCCOE, SCC Behavioral Health Services, the County District Attorney’s Office, and the SCC Opioid Overdose Prevention Project, which has already made life saving strides in schools.
We had a surprise visit today by City Councilmember and Cindy supporter Dev Davis who stopped by the campaign office for Willow Glen’s annual Trick or Treat along Lincoln Avenue.

County jails are no place for those suffering from #mentalhealth disorders. TY to @CAGovernor for signing my #SB1223 to encourage more judges to grant mental health diversion to folks who need it, while preserving judicial discretion. Data shows it works! @ACLU_NorCal
It was a rich, informative discussion hosted by @SenJoshBecker, who's working legislatively to support youth mental health, esp. on social media. As @Marico4LG Sayoc stated, "There’s a multitude of resources. There is no wrong door. Someone will help you find the right resource."
🧵What an informative Virtual Town Hall @SenJoshBecker hosted today. Participants walked away with loads of resources to support youth #mentalhealth. View it here: https://t.co/aJbSynASdS or at https://t.co/EZRQpBDPz6
