Yay! We're finally acknowledging the mental health crisis in youth. You have to wait two years to have your crisis, though... And possibly no funding to support our students in crisis. #mentalhealthcrisis #mentalhealthinschools #advocacysd https://edsource.org//newsom-signs-bill-creating-me/662242

CA's mandate for vaccines for all students is, unsurprisingly, causing confusion. Clear as mud seems to be the theme. How will this impact your student? #californiavaccinemandate #vaccinemandate #specialneeds #advocacysd https://www.latimes.com//questions-over-who-can-opt-out-ca

Despite mandates to implement IEPs, students with disabilities continue to wait for services if enrolled in independent study programs. Compensatory education, here we come! #independentstudy #studentswithspecialneeds #specialneeds #advocacysd https://edsource.org//independent-study-excludes-ca/662137

Sorry, kids, you will have to wait two years before your mental health crisis can be addressed. https://edsource.org//newsom-signs-bill-creating-me/662242

We have been talking about the impending mental health crisis since last year. It is here. It is real. There are no beds at adolescent psychiatric hospitals, so kids are getting stuck in the ER for 90+ hours, waiting for a bed that never appears. #mentalhealthcrisis #adolescentmentalhealth #teenmentalhealth #teenmentalhealthcrisis #advocacysd https://calmatters.org//children-suicide-residential-trea/
