“Childhood seems fun. But there are things that people are going through, and there are even times where like, we just put on a show. Most of us kids are really good actors, and you might not believe it.”
Local teens and community experts shared candid insights and valuable expertise on Mental Health, Trauma, Substance Use, Life Online, and Healthy Relationships at Wedgwood’s State of the Child Panel Conversation.
