Funding Youth Mental Health: A Cross-Sector Approach
Description:
Mental health, education, economic mobility, the future of democracy — these issue areas are intricately intertwined. Making an impact on young people’s well-being requires a cross-cutting, cross-sector approach. After a deep dive into the landscape of youth mental health and interconnected issue areas, we will explore how funders can build an ecosystem for impact at scale, and drive research and development, innovative cross-sector solutions, and policy change in this complex landscape. Join us to learn about comprehensive and collaborative strategies to invest in youth well-being.
