In this Youth Leadership Lab, students ages 11–18 are invited to connect with peers involved in the Black Youth Suicide Prevention Coalition—young people who are learning about mental health and speaking up for positive change. Facilitators Samuel Carrasco and Tatiana Nguyen will create space for questions, real conversation, and honest discussion about what mental health looks like for your generation today.
Together, we’ll explore how our communities can better support youth mental health. We’ll also look at ways students can share their ideas and experiences with the adults in their lives to help build stronger support systems for the future.
