Happy Fourth of July! #FourthofJuly #4thofJuly

We’re/I’m proud to be part of #TeamSBMH! That’s why we/I joined nearly 250 other orgs and individuals asking the DC Council to make school based mental health & community behavioral health a priority in DC’s budget: bit.ly/SBMHLetter, won’t you join us?

Without a stable, community-based provider system and an expansion of SBMH, #DC children & families will lose critical access to mental health supports during an already difficult time. If mental health matters to you, join #TeamSBMH: chng.it/QdbgXHmk. #DCSchoolsRecovery

#DC’s children are experiencing high levels of emotional stress & trauma. Yet at this time of greatest need, we are not investing enough in school based mental health to help them. That is why we signed on to join #TeamSBMH. Add your name, too! chng.it/QdbgXHmk

Today we celebrate freedom for enslaved African Americans. Please take the time and learn more about #Junteenth here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juneteenth

We are so appreciative! It was delicious! 💙

When should I start talking to my child about racism? @AmatyaPhD says “do it early and do it often.” Hear more from Dr. Amatya on today’s #PandemicParenting as he talks with @NBCBarbara about how to talk to kids about #racism and #civilunrest spr.ly/6016GH4eI 📲 ⬅️

Essential employees continue to work tirelessly around the clock during the #COVID19pandemic. Thank you @dunkindonuts! We are so appreciative of your donation to our frontline heroes working the night shift at The HSC Pediatric Center. 🍩 #RunOnDunkin

Big week @ChildrensNatl as we kick off #CHIW2020atCN. Community voices and partnerships are central to our work to achieve health equity for all children. We stand united with our community and committed to addressing the public health crisis of racism.
