Why This Matters
Teen girls are experiencing record-high levels of sadness, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. They need safe, consistent support and practical skills—not judgment.

TREATMENT GAP (U.S., AGES 12–17 WITH MAJOR DEPRESSION):
About 40% did not receive treatment in the past year. (SAMHSA)
PLACEMENT INSTABILITY & RUNNING AWAY (RISK IS HIGHER FOR GIRLS):
In a multi-state analysis, girls were more likely to run away from foster care than boys (gender difference consistently noted). (The Center for State Child Welfare Data)
MENTAL HEALTH + OPIOID MISUSE CONNECTION IN TEENS (SUPPORTS INTEGRATED CARE)
