Governor Reeves announces youth mental wellness platform

Governor Tate Reeves announces the launch of a program at helping young state residents.

Governor Reeves is teaming up with Canopy Children’s Solution and the Mississippi Development Authority to launch a mental wellness platform for children and teens.

The program is expected to offer an innovative and cost-effective pathway to recovery, also building a sustainable model for broader adoption in Mississippi.

The program will support 29 public school districts in low- and moderate-income districts throughout our state.

It can be accessed via devices that students have already been provided.

It provides evidence-based hope curriculum that strengthens emotional wellness and goal setting, self-guided digital tools and weekly wellness lessons, tech-enabled care navigation that connects students and caregivers to real-time support, resource navigation for families, and clinical screening and assessments when deeper support is needed.
