Stress in Youth Today – Youth discussion

On July 25th, our summer Changemaker volunteers, Ridhima Kapoor, Kaki Tam, and Sophie Tran, hosted a virtual event with their friends to address some of the factors contributing to stress among young people today. The discussion covered a range of topics, including cultural stigmas that hinder seeking help and the pressures of academics and maintaining friendships. They also mentioned how much more aware the national conversation around mental health has really shifted from the past. Through a mix of engaging games and meaningful conversations, they facilitated an insightful dialogue on the common pressures faced by today’s youth. Rcoz frequently hosts virtual events designed for such thought-provoking discussions for our communities. By sharing our common experiences, we hope to decrease the stigma associated with seeking help for mental health challenges.
