Hopkins at Home / In Conversation: The Mental Health Crisis in School-Age Children

Description

School-age children in America are facing an emerging mental health crisis. What can parents and educators do to protect the wellbeing of children and teens? In this new series, Christopher Morphew, dean of the Johns Hopkins School of Education, hosts a two-part conversation on the current adolescent mental health crisis in America through the dual lenses of public health and education policy with Elise Pas, a research professor in the Department of Mental Health within the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and Jodi Miller, a postdoctoral fellow in the School Counseling Department at the Johns Hopkins School of Education.

Part 1: On-demand video (available April 30): The first part of the conversation will be an on-demand video focused on defining the scope, scale, and current landscape of this critical issue. A link to the video will be sent to all registrants on April 30.

Part 2: Live broadcast with Q&A (May 7, 5:30-6:30 p.m.): The second portion will address intervention strategies for the parents and educators facing these challenges. This recorded conversation will be broadcast on the Hopkins at Home website and be followed by a live, interactive Q&A with Pas and Miller.

This event is part of the Hopkins at Home series.
