Why have I been advocating for schools to be open & children’s mental health. I have consent to share this story. My client wants to be heard. I wil be their voice. I assessed an older transient youth who was unable to meet over video due to severe body dysmorphia. 1/7
They are bright & engaging. Client is homeless and is supported by the system. As part of my trauma assessment, we ask about school. It was at this point they broke down in tears saying they are unable to do virtual learning & need a teacher next to them for help/support 2/7
