DISTRICT 4
Youth Development & Mental Health Access
The Problem:
Our kids are spending too much time on social media and not enough time in productive, engaging activities. Meanwhile, mental health services are underfunded, and families don’t know where to turn for support.
Will’s Plan:
More Youth Centers & After-School Programs – Give kids positive outlets beyond TikTok and the streets with access to sports, arts, and mentorship programs.
Mental Health Funding & Accessibility: Will will advocate for expanded city funding for counseling, crisis intervention, and family mental health services.
Stronger Outreach & Awareness – Ensure that mental health services are visible and accessible so families don’t have to search endlessly for help.
Why This Matters: If we want a better future for District 4, we must invest in our youth and ensure that mental health isn’t ignored.
