Peer mental health support for teens
somethings.com (opens in a new tab)Somethings is working to end the youth mental health crisis, with a target as specific as they come: returning the teen suicide rate to 2008 levels of 6.8 per 100,000, across the 42 million teenagers in the United States. It is building the first scaled network of Certified Peer Specialists alongside a mental health experience designed to be genuinely engaging for teenagers — engagement being the constraint, since a service adolescents will not use has no effect whatever its clinical quality.
