With so many things important to teens disrupted- school, seeing friends, sports and other activities that shape identity- many kids are struggling, even those without a history of depression or anxiety. This month, we’ve rounded up resources to help parents recognize the signs of depression in teenagers and get them effective support or treatment.

As for the month of November, Caring 4 Cowboys Wellness Center is kicking off the month with “Unity of Community Wellness Week”. As we enter the month of November, our students, families, staff and community deeply grieve the one-year mark of the Saugus tragedy. Our individual memories of the day’s events will forever be imprinted in our brains. Our hearts feel deep sorrow and emotional pain for the lives we lost and the trauma experienced. On this year’s remembrance, we will focus on the many acts of gratitude, resilience, unification and strength that we have observed first-hand. We share our deepest gratitude to all of you who played an intricate role in supporting the emotional healing and mental health of lives affected. We truly thank you for uniting with us and supporting us along the road to healing.
