Thank you @ZEROTOTHREE for advocating for mental health services for infants and young children.
And for children living in poverty, that number is even higher - 22%. That's why infant and early childhood mental health is at the center of all educational, health, and policy matters we support and advocate for. #MentalIllnessAwarenessWeek #MentalHealth #IECMH
