Mental Health Approach
Normalize Mental Health Public Health Approach
– Not solely mental illness education
– Not solely suicide prevention
Why this works
– Everyone’s goal is to have positive mental health
– Students need a starting point
![Page 15: A New Approach to Mental Health - California Institute for ......A New Approach to . Mental Health .

- But what is the stigma?
- Focusing on overall mental health opens students to talking about emotions early which can prevent more severe problems.

Awareness campaigns will always be important, but it’s time to give students the tools they need
to address their mental health.
• Counseling centers are overwhelmed.
• 75% of students have their first episode with mental illness by age
24.
• Why you never really leave high school.
• Teach about coping mechanisms, brain development and how to help a friend.
