TeenMentalHealth.org: A Resource Ready for Action


Earlier this month board members from the seven Community Health Boards within Capital Health district had the privilege of listening to Dr. Stan Kutcher talk about TeenMentalHealth.org, an amazing resource for parents, educators, health professionals and youth aiming to increase levels of mental health literacy.

TeenMentalHealth.org is not just a website, but is also home to free print resources, an app and an Ebook. At times we can get bogged down by jargon when trying to educate ourselves about health issues; Dr. Kutcher and his team eliminate this roadblock through translation and transfer of scientific knowledge.

Resources available from TeenMentalHealth.org mean you don’t need to spend time trying to decipher and tailor the message, they are ready for action.
