Never Unplugged: What's Happening in High Schools

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, adolescent mental health continues to worsen, with more than 40% of students regularly feeling sad or hopeless and around 30% experiencing poor mental health. In this week’s episode of Raising Me, Adrienne gets an insider perspective on what’s really happening in high schools, from constantly being plugged in to the pressure of social media. You’ll hear from a guidance counselor with more than 20 years of experience and two high school students who candidly discuss what high schoolers are actually experiencing. They're working with an organization, KyleCares, that helps students connect other students with mental health resources and intervention. They’ll share the remarkable mission they are on to try to make sure no one at their school suffers in silence.
