Pre-pandemic, less than 50% of BC children and youth with mental illness (serious cases only?!) received any form of #mentalhealth support. What happens now that the need for support only increases?

👉Did she indicate any desire to hear this information?

👉Is it possible that she knows more about this topic than I do?

👉Did I read the room before starting to speak?
