Youth wellbeing is a priority, and we’re excited to share the recent release of the Youth Mental Health and Substance Use in King County data brief. This brief brings together local data from multiple sources and amplifies youth voices to highlight the continuum of supports needed. Developed in collaboration with multiple departments in King County and Seattle Children’s, it underscores the importance of ensuring that all youth have access to culturally responsive and developmentally appropriate mental health resources.
