New research shows significant strides in educational policy on the frontline of young people’s mental health.
Mental health support services should be embedded in school settings, according to Jigsaw.
Jigsaw provide support to young people who are having difficulties with their mental health.
In addition, Jigsaw provide online services and supports in the community to young people aged 12 to 15.
New research by the ESRI shows significant strides in educational policy on the frontline of young people’s mental health and wellness.
The findings echo Jigsaw's experience working with more than 580 schools nationwide - including Kildare - through their Neart programme.
However, the report also calls for policy to clearly separate universal wellbeing initiatives from complex mental health needs.
Mike Mansfield, Director of Communications at Jigsaw believes early intervention is key:
