Do you know the signs of depression  and other forms of mental stress to look out for in children and teens? Did you know that suicide is the second leading cause of death in Black children aged 10-14, and the third leading cause of death in Black adolescents aged 15-19?  In this episode, Crystal Winfield-Edwards, LCSW, helps us navigate the nuanced topic of mental health in Black youth.

Our youth need to know that their mental health matters!   Let's get into it! See you on the front porch!
