Children's mental health is declining. How can social workers help? | NASW

American children's mental health is worsening. Young people and their families are dealing with the emotional impact of inflation, social injustice, mass violence, and grief related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In this episode, we talk about the problematic decline in children’s mental health in the United States, and what social workers can do to help.​
Our guests are:
- Gary Pettengell, co-founder and CEO of ECINS (Empowering Communities with Integrated Network Systems)
