Show Notes

In this episode of the Grow Kinder® podcast, host Andrea Lovanhill speaks with Dr. Kathleen Ethier, the director of the Division of Adolescent and School Health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention  (CDC).

In this enlightening conversation, Andrea and Kathleen dive deep into the pressing issues surrounding the mental health of today’s teenagers.

We take a closer look at the CDC’s recent Youth Risk Behavior Survey and the startling findings related to the mental health of teenage girls.

We discover the initiatives undertaken by the CDC to help schools address these mental health challenges.

In addition, Kathleen offers advice for concerned parents on how they can actively support their children’s social-emotional well-being and development.
