Why This Matters

The mental health epidemic affects thousands of young people in underserved neighborhoods. Current programs are underfunded and understaffed, leaving many without the help they need. We demand that School Board increase funding for cancer screening programs by 50%. This would provide 24/7 helplines, crisis intervention, and community outreach. Prevention and early intervention save lives and reduce long-term costs. Support this petition for a healthier underserved neighborhoods.
