In a significant move to bolster mental health support, the Hawai‘i State Department of Education has announced a partnership with the Cook Center for Human Connection to provide access to ParentGuidance.org. This initiative aims to offer families and staff a comprehensive platform featuring virtual courses, mental health resources, and community support. The service is particularly timely, addressing the increasing concerns surrounding depression and trauma among students.
ParentGuidance.org is designed to equip parents and educators with the tools needed to support children’s mental health effectively. The platform’s offerings include expert-led courses and personalized guidance, making mental health resources more accessible to the school community. This effort underscores the department’s commitment to fostering a supportive environment for students’ well-being. For more details, visit the full article on Yahoo Finance.
