According to a study done by the Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago from 2022-2024, roughly half of youth in Illinois experience mental health issues. 

Terri Casey, Director of the University of Illinois Extension in Logan, Menard, and Sangamon Counties, explains that on April 1st, they will host a webinar titled "I'll Go With You." This program is centered around supporting students who are struggling with their mental health.

Casey states that the session will be led by Dr. Aggie Rieger, who is asking participants to come with a sense of curiosity and hope for the impact that can be made. 

Again, the "I'll Go With You" youth trauma webinar takes place on April 1st from noon to 1 p.m. Learn more and register at extension.illinois.edu/lms.
