This year at Thanksgiving, we are grateful for the dedication of
those compelled to change the lives of young people. Dr. Tasha
Green Cruzat is leading solutions to our youth mental health
crisis. Among the most staggering statistics is 30% of female
students nationally reported seriously considering attempting
suicide in the past 12 months.
Dr. Cruzat, a U.S. Navy veteran, is President of Children’s
Advocates for Change and shares a vision for getting our
kids better access to mental health care. In this episode of the
Crisis Cast, Lissa & Thom push to learn what's driving the shortage
in youth psychiatry and psychology. Plus, we ask the question -- is
there enough emotional IQ in our culture to produce change?
