The House resolution highlights the growing crisis of youth mental health and the need for increased access to care. It formally establishes May 31, 2026 as Youth Mental Health Day and September 9, 2026 as Youth Suicide Prevention Day to raise awareness and reduce stigma. The resolution cites national data showing high rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide among adolescents. It encourages state and local governments to adopt and promote these observances and to invest in comprehensive school and community‑based mental‑health initiatives. The resolution stresses that culturally competent care is essential for Black, Indigenous, LGBTQ+, immigrant, and low‑income youth. By recognizing these days, the House aims to foster social connection and support for young people across the country.
