4. Engaging Youth & Family in Mental Health Resilience

The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted the limited worldview of developing children and we must take special consideration of their mental and emotional health just as we would their physical health. It is the job of current practicing and studying clinicians to be cognizant of impending changes in children developmentally and be able to support them. In this episode we have UConn School of Nursing student Nicey Brooks and UConn School of Dental Medicine student Tyler Hailey interviewing Dr. Robert Keder, MD (Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrician at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center and Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at UConn School of Medicine) and Tianna Hill, MSW (Communications Associate and a Project Coordinator for the Connecticut School-Based Diversion Initiative (SBDI) at the Child Health and Development Institute of Connecticut, Inc. with current board membership with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI CT)).
