March 24, 2022 While much attention has been paid to individual implicit bias, research is beginning to show ways in which organizations can also possess hidden forms of bias at the policy, procedural, and administrative levels. These implicit organizational biases may strongly impact client-provider interactions, care decisions, and engagement, as well as health outcomes. Join us as we learn more about the impact of implicit organizational bias and collectively explore ways to mitigate its effects on training and education, community building, recruitment and hiring, and beyond.   To watch the recording, please go to: https://youtu.be/ooQKCXKNBQQ   Presenter: Miraj Desai, PhD

As our schools continue to diversify, it is critical that we examine the updated literature on how young people understand these identities and how youth with these identities experience the world.     This webinar will provide information on the most common terms and descriptions of sexual and gender categories used by youth, present the most recent statistics detailing prevalence of sexual and gender minorities in younger age groups, and review broadly how these youth may experience the school environment (including discussion of school community and policy). We discuss both a mental health care perspective on individual intervention in addition to providing recommendations for increasing staff competency and advocating for school-wide support services. Specific attention will also be given to the unique needs of this population in rural settings. Trainers Keri A. Frantell, Ph.D.    Dr. Keri A.

Mientras que la gente solía pensar que la depresión sólo ocurría en adultos, ahora sabemos que los niños y adolescentes también pueden experimentar depresión. De hecho, en promedio, aproximadamente el 3% de los niños de 3 a 17 años tienen un diagnóstico de depresión. Esa tasa aumenta en un 6-10% durante la adolescencia. Si bien muchos niños experimentan estados de ánimo decaídos, los síntomas de la depresión no deben ignorarse.

El suicidio es una preocupación seria y real entre los niños y adolescentes. El suicidio es la segunda causa principal de muerte entre los jóvenes de 10 a 24 años. Los intentos de suicidio a menudo están relacionados con otras condiciones de salud mental, pero no siempre. Particularmente entre los niños más pequeños, los intentos de suicidio pueden ser impulsivos. Las señales de advertencia de suicidio o declaraciones de suicidio siempre deben tomarse en serio y ser evaluadas por un profesional de la salud mental. Los sentimientos suicidas se pueden tratar con la intervención y el apoyo apropiados.

La preocupación y la ansiedad son partes habituales de la vida, pero también pueden ser indicaciones de que su hijo necesita más apoyo. El reconocimiento de los trastornos de ansiedad en los jóvenes ha aumentado significativamente en los últimos 10 años. Aproximadamente el 30% de los niños y adolescentes experimentarán un trastorno de ansiedad en algún momento de sus jóvenes vidas. Conocer las señales y buscar ayuda profesional cuando sea necesario ayudará a interrumpir una progresión que puede conducir a la depresión, el bajo rendimiento escolar y el consumo de sustancias.

This event was held on March 15th, 2022 in collaboration with the University of Washington.
