Get Connected! As reported by the CDC “Connectedness is an important protective factor for youth that can reduce the likelihood of poor mental health. Building strong bonds and relationships with adults and friends at school, at home and in the community provides youth with a sense of connectedness.
This feeling of connectedness is important and can protect adolescents from poor mental health, and other risks like drug use and violence. Youth need to know someone cares about them. Connections can be made virtually or in person.” https://www.cdc.gov/childrensmentalhealth/index.html
