Children are facing a mental health crisis.
Many of our local schools lack the mental health professionals necessary to serve student needs.
Remember, mental health is not just the absence of illness, it’s also prevention.
As children spend most of their time in the classroom, schools must provide access to mental health prevention and resources for students and their families.
Public schools across the country have reported increases in students seeking mental health services and school staff and educators reporting concerns about the mental health of their students since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
About 88% of public schools did not strongly agree that they could effectively provide mental health services to all students who needed this support, according to data from the National Center for Education Statistics.
The largest limitations looming in schools:
> Not enough mental health professionals to manage caseloads in schools
> Inadequate access to licensed mental health professionals
> Inadequate funding.
At Yogi Squad, we know that schools cannot function in isolation. Community support is imperative to ensure the success of the future leaders of our community.
Since organizing in 2018, your donations have made it possible for Yogi Squad to roll out more than 28,000 mats in schools, daycares, community centers, and local businesses throughout the city of Fort Worth.
Paid versus in-kind services provided by Yogi Squad in 2023
Contributions and services extended to Yogi Squad directly fuel our impactful community initiatives. Your donations play a crucial role in supporting our in-kind efforts within the community.
That’s where you come in.
Schools need Yogi Squad.
We’re on a mission to reach another 10,000+ kids.
