Getting Youth in the Right Headspace
A great way of maintaining positive mental health is to take care of your emotional wellness. We have created a days-of-the-week emotional wellness chart with ways for youth to maintain a healthy mind and body every week.
How Caring Adults can Start the Conversation About Mental Health
As caring adults, it’s important for us to recognize when youth may be struggling and find ways to help them open up about their mental health. A study conducted by Child Trends reported that “the presence of one or more caring, committed adults in a child’s life increases the likelihood that children and youth flourish, and become productive adults themselves” (Child Trends, 2013).

In honor of Pride Month, TYAN has asked two of our Community Partners, Borderland Rainbow Center and Fiesta Youth, to share some of their wisdom on working with LGBTQ+ youth.
