ID Card Updates for 2019-2020
Over the last several years, California has recognized the mental health needs and
social-emotional needs of our youth through Assembly Bill 2246. Since the beginning of
the 2017/2018 school year, our adults who work in our middle schools have been
trained to recognize risk factors, warning signs and what to do when they are concerned
about a child’s social-emotional and mental well-being. Beginning Fall 2019, you will
also see outreach to our middle school children to seek help if they are experiencing
challenges such as hotlines listed on middle school identification cards, parent and
community resources available on the District website, and resources included in
materials from the District.
We all experience different levels of mental health as we go through life, and mental
health problems can be very common. In fact, 50% of us will experience a mental health
challenge in our lifetime. Youth ages 10-14 are showing increasing signs of anxiety,
suicide ideation, depression, stress, crisis, family instability, isolation, interpersonal
conflict, loss, and emotional distress. The good news is that people recover from mental
illness all the time. With support, individuals report reduced symptoms and improved
quality of life. We are here to help.
