Send us Fan MailDECAL will celebrate Children’s Mental Health Week in Georgia May 6-10, 2024, as we have done for the last four years in the first full week of May. Similar to Georgia’s Pre-K Week, and Inclusive Early Learning Week, this special week in May reminds us that the early years in a child’s life provide a key opportunity to establish safe and secure relationships and support healthy social and emotional development. Joining us to talk about Children’s Mental Health Week is our own, Laura Lucas, Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Director at DECAL and our guests: Lisa Pace, Director of Operations from Georgia Parent Support Network (GPSN), Erin Harlow- Parker, Manager of Child Advocacy Programs, Behavioral Mental Health from Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA) and Maria Ramos, Senior Program Specialist from Voices for Georgia’s Children. Support the show
