Description

Adolescent mental health is at a critical juncture, with U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy declaring it as “the defining public health crisis of our time.” Addressing this crisis requires a structured, tiered approach that prioritizes evidence-based solutions that are grounded in clinical insight and attuned to the real-world challenges faced by teenagers. This presentation will underscore the central role of adults in supporting adolescent mental health, detail the key features of effective interventions for adolescents, and highlight the most urgent areas of concern.
