Wellness Checks on Youth Continue in Clarendon

Recognizing that health encompasses not only physical well-being but also psychological well-being, the Ministry of Health and Wellness has pledged to prioritize the mental health of children within school settings. To fulfill this commitment, the Ministry initiated a program last year aimed at addressing the mental health needs of students.

Under this initiative, representatives from the Ministry have made numerous visits to various educational institutions. During these visits, students actively participate in conversations and engage in activities that focus on their overall health, including mental well-being. These interactions aim to create a safe and supportive environment where students can openly discuss their mental health concerns and receive appropriate guidance and support.

By emphasizing the importance of mental health alongside physical health, the Ministry of Health and Wellness demonstrates its dedication to holistic well-being among school-aged children. Through these proactive efforts, the ministry strives to ensure that students receive the necessary resources and attention to nurture their mental health, promoting a healthier and more resilient student population.
