It’s no surprise that children and teens are reporting mental health struggles at higher rates than in the past. And nationwide, only about half of those with a mental health condition get treatment, according to the CDC.

The Wilder Foundation is working to reach more kids with the new Wilder East Clinic. The site opened on May 1. It aims to close gaps in care for young people – especially young people of color – with providers who work in multiple languages.

Joining Minnesota Now for details is Wilder Foundation vice president of community mental health and wellness Pahoua Yang.
