If you are a parent, a guardian or you care about the future of Black youth you need to attend this discussion.
- Black children between the ages of five and 12 are twice as likely to die by suicide as White children of the same age.
- Rates of suicide are increasing most among Black girls.
Join me in celebration of the release of the new and revised edition of Saving Our Sons Raising Black Children in a Turbulent World.
Can We Save the Children? Black Youth and the Post-Covid Mental Health Crisis will bring together a multigenerational panel to discuss:
- the disturbing dimensions of the growing mental health crisis among young people;
- the role of social media in the lives of youth;
- what Black youth need now: and
- how our community can be the village they need.
We’ll seek solutions and engage your questions and concerns.
