It’s Time to Fund Children’s Mental Health – Why Now and How?

COVID-19 and its repercussions have taken a huge toll on children’s mental health and emotional wellbeing, particularly in vulnerable and marginalized communities. Now more than ever, we need a collective philanthropic response to address the escalating crisis in children’s mental health and help our next generation emerge from this trying time even stronger.  

Join us for a discussion on the sheer scale and far-reaching implications of the children’s mental health crisis, and how funders can join forces and step up our commitment to the wellbeing of our young people and social equity.
