With a pandemic occurring, mental health for children has become a \"taboo\". Reading the ideas of youth, many feel they are not being heard or given the support needed to help them deal with the emotions and stress they are experiencing during this time. \"An Opportunity for ALL\" will be a program offering different outlets for youth, ages 10-18, to express themselves, have fun while connecting with others of the same age, feel safe and express their mental health issues/problems so we can all share our opinions on how to deal with it. Youth will meet 3 times a week for 2 hours with Licensed Clinical Social Workers and have a place outside of their home they can come to, unwind, speak about what is bothering them and find support in others who can empathize and sympathize. It will be a support program in where students from the whole community join together and help one another while becoming stronger by sharing their own experiences. Youth will break into groups so they are given the opportunity to socialize, enhance their emotional needs and feel that their opinions are being valued and appreciated.&nbsp;</u></p><p>Which of the following issues does your project address?</p><ol><li>Issue 1 - Addressing Mental Health</li><li>Issue 2 - Preparation for College and/or Career</li><li>Issue 3 - Youth Advocacy Promotion</li></ol><p><br></p><p><u>The project will address Issue 1- Addressing Mental Health.</u></p><p><strong>Youth Engagement - </strong>Please explain how you will engage youth in the planning and implementation of the project.</p><p><u>We will engage youth in the planning and implementation of our project by hearing their voices.
