Emotional Well-Being Action Team

The Emotional Well-Being Action Team is focused on eliminating youth suicides and bullying in Wake County.

We are taking collective action and calling on community leaders and organizations to:

1. Collect and share data:
   • Administer a survey to youth on outcomes in the Blueprint (provided by Youth Thrive)
   • Measure and provide data on program capacity and participation with demographics of participants
2. Ensure staff in the organization are trained in evidenced-based suicide prevention (e.g., Mental Health First Aid) and attend at least one additional Youth Thrive networking event.
3. Participate in the local Bullying Prevention Campaign by providing parents and youth with information on bullying and appropriate social-emotional responses.

This action team is led as a joint effort of Alliance Behavioral Healthcare, Wake County Public Schools, and The Poe Center for Health Education.
