A national movement to promote children’s mental wellness and prevent crises
Because kids don’t always wear their thoughts on their sleeves, it can be difficult to tell when a child is struggling.
Created by behavioral health experts, these tools provide education and action-oriented strategies to start conversations and boost mental wellness in children during your everyday life.
Get tips and easy-to-use tools delivered straight to your inbox each month. These resources help start conversations with and boost mental wellness in children of all ages.

Welcome to On Our Sleeves! Watch your inbox each month for useful articles, how-to guides, tips, and more. Timely, seasonal topics will help you get the conversation started, and keep it going all year long.
It’s good to know what’s going on in the world, but the news can be tough on all of us — especially children. With easy access to the latest news all around us, on television or overhearing conversations, kids may feel overwhelmed by it.
Giving children a safe place to talk can ensure they have accurate information and allow them to process strong emotions. In the long run, this can support kids’ mental health, especially when they deal with upsetting news in the future. Download our tips for talking about current events in the handout, Current Events Conversation Starters (also available in Spanish).
Learn how to recognize when children and adolescents are experiencing a mental health challenge or are in crisis, and how you can help them. This class is designed for parents, family, educators and other adults who interact with kids.
