    Dear Association Executives - Good afternoon. I want to let you know that on Friday, March 3, The Washington Post posted, "A surprising remedy for teens in mental health crises," a powerful story courtesy of The Hechinger Report about teen Mental Health First Aid, its impact on youth mental wellbeing and the important role training plays amid the provider shortage. We've also attached a PDF of the Post article in case you run into a paywall. In addition to reaching the WashingtonPost.com audience of 17.5 million people, the story is likely to get picked up by many of the Post's clients and content partners. This was a cross-collaborative effort resulting from a months-long journey that involved interviewing people affiliated with teen MHFA programs at school districts across the country. Enjoy the article!
