Explore how culture impacts our understanding of children’s mental health and common mental health symptoms and diagnoses for children
Mentally healthy children are able to reach developmental & emotional milestones, have positive social skills, and cope with problems in healthy ways. And one of the most important ways we can strengthen the mental health of children is by recognizing when children need support. This introductory webinar explores how culture impacts our understanding of children’s mental health, the most common mental health symptoms and diagnoses for children, and when to seek help.
